Le ebike sono il mezzo ideale per scoprire la natura del Roero, le maestose rocche vi lasceranno a bocca aperta.
Tour di una giornata su sentieri panoramici tra Pocapaglia e Sommariva Perno

E-bike Tour
The e-bike tour is ideal for a full-day excursion, discovering Roero and its wooded landscapes. The e-bike tour is not technical in nature, making it suitable for anyone who wants to spend a day immersed in wild nature while discovering typical Piedmontese products and folklore, searching for traces of the Masche.
The Masche
This e-bike route is designed to evoke ancient atmospheres and visit places where you can relive the mysterious atmospheres of ancient legends of Masche, the Piedmontese witches. The Masche are indeed witches but they aren't always malevolent or evil entities. Piedmontese Masche are mischievous, capricious - be careful not to make them angry, as they become vindictive. Unlike regular witches, Masche can also be good; they are healers, capable of curing people and animals, and can even save lives in danger.
Even today, sayings and expressions about them are still used, the most famous being "There are Masche around," typically used when something disappears, objects fall inexplicably, or strange noises are heard in the attic or between the beams and roofs of ancient houses. With an adventurous spirit, hop on the electric bike in search of the Masche!
Departure from Bra Train Station
The bike itinerary ideally starts from Bra; arriving at Bra railway station is convenient, where you can pick up your pre-booked e-bike and start your day tour. Bra is the birthplace of Slow Food and is famous for its cheese. The Cheese festival brings together enthusiasts and producers from around the world. Year-round, you can taste the famous "Bra Duro" and "Bra Tenero" cheeses accompanied by Bra sausage, another culinary excellence of the city. During the warm season, you can stop at a deli to buy Bra cheese and sausage, prepare a good sandwich, and enjoy a break from cycling by stopping along the way for a picnic.
Pocapaglia and the Masca Micillina
On the e-bike, you reach Pocapaglia, home of Masca Micillina, one of the most famous, if not the most famous, Masca of Piedmont. Pocapaglia is the heart of Roero, its countryside dominated by the "Rocche," harsh hills of sand and clay that, together with the immense wooded lands, make the panorama unique, creating a fantasy fairy-tale landscape. Could these natural elements have created the right atmosphere for the legend? If you've visited the Barbaresco Langa, you've surely seen the Rocche of the Seven Brothers and Lady of Langa, also "Rocche" but completely different. The trail followed by e-bike continues through woods and cultivated fields; among rustling leaves and singing wind, you might (perhaps) hear the voice of Masca Micillina.
Masca Micillina (Michelina) was born in Barolo and married a farmer from Pocapaglia. The poor woman had a frightening appearance: she was small, with a wrinkled face, almost bald, even toothless, and when she walked, she had a slow and crippled gait - in short, the classic witch appearance.
It wasn't her appearance that earned her the "title of Masca," but rather a series of discomforts and strange events she caused to the village inhabitants. One day a young man crossed her path, fell, and while running away in fear, noticed he had one foot facing forward and one backward; another time, Micillina touched a girl's back, and the next day she started developing a hump, and there were more such incidents...
To these strange events was added Micillina's ability to avoid being found by anyone, not even her husband, who spread the word that he had married a Masca.
Micillina was condemned to burn at the stake, and the sad sentence was carried out in Pocapaglia on the hill now called Bric d'la Masca, where some dark spots can still be seen today (many believe it's blood, but it's actually oxidized iron). This is an excellent panoramic point to stop and admire the landscape, listen to the sound of the wind, and who knows, maybe hear Micillina's voice!
Sommariva Perno
Continuing pedaling on the e-bike, you encounter woods and steep cliffs near the Rocche, alternating with fields and cultivated areas; surely the harsh and wild landscape gave the right popular inspiration to the birth of Masche legends. The landscape changes completely near Sommariva Perno, where the countryside is populated with vineyards and numerous orchards, and how can we not mention the famous and sweet strawberries of Sommariva Perno. During strawberry season, a stop at local producers for a delicious snack is highly recommended. The bike ride continues towards the villages of Baldissero d'Alba, Monteu Roero, and Ceresole d'Alba.
Sommariva Del Bosco
The final stop of the self-guided e-bike tour is Sommariva del Bosco or Sommariva Bosco, the border gate of Roero. Sommariva Bosco hosts the important fair "Amè l'Amel" (Love Honey), during which you can find local and non-local producers specialized in beekeeping offering the chance to taste many different kinds of honey. If the bike ride doesn't coincide with the fair, it's possible and recommended to stop at local producers and taste the excellent honey of Sommariva Del Bosco directly on-site. On the bike, you return to Bra, the beginning and end of the electric bike tour.

Part from Torre Lapillo, in the shadow of the historic tower, the fifth stage of the Cyclovia of the Ionian Salento. After a fresco on a fantastic spunnulata (a resurgence), it pedal between the woods of Arneo and the coast with its naturalistic jewels : the paths in the perfumed stain of the Palude of the Count, the pink fenicacles in flight on the lake mirror of Salina dei Monaci, the freezing and crystalline water of the mouth of the Chidro River. And then straight into the interior, beyond the woods there is first Manduria, with its millennial history, and finally the borgo of Avetrana.

**Update on 22nd September 2020**
The following text and the linked "hikes" routes are part of the Gallo Nero Bike Day event on last 20th September 2020. Together with the organising body we decided to let the routes be available all year round, hoping that more and more people decide to cycle on our roads. If you want to visit wineries, restaurants and businesses who joined the event, please call in advance because special menus and prices and opening times may vary without notification.
The 8th edition of the Gallo Nero Granfondo race has been postponed to 2021. This year, bicycle enthusiasts will not take part in the usual Gallo Nero race on September 20th, rather they will have the opportunity to embark on a special ‘food and wine’ cycling tour for the day. Bike aficionados will be able to test their skills on either of the two Granfondo courses starting from any point of the itinerary. Whilst enjoying a ride through natural scenic beauty, they can stop along the way for a visit to the Chianti Classico cellars - many of which will be open for guided tours and tastings - or take a longer break in one of the several restaurants near the route, delighting in dishes specifically created for the occasion and dedicated to cyclists. Several Gallo Nero statues will mark the path and represent the focal point around which musical entertainment and other performances will take place.

Splendid tour in ebike or trekking between the vineyards of the Monferrato, valorized by the presence of small boats that recall the similarities between our hills and the waves of the sea.
The first boat is located in Piazza IV November, from which you can see the imposing Castello Veggi, having mediaeval origin that is placed to the left of the Church of San Bartolomeo, which has been celebrated for just 500 years since the renovation, while on the right is the building of the Municipality.
From there you have to go down on Via Roma and you can find on the right a bike rest alongside the "Muretto dei Vini", made by the very good fountanilese painter Luigi Amerio, while taking to the left you go down to Via Fontana until you find on the right a rest area ; overcoming the peanuts, you come to a jumper, you turn to the left by immersing yourself in the green on a path leading to a vineyard, you go up to the right by finding itself after a few metres the first picnic area with the second boat : from here you can see the valley on the right while on the left we find the country of Fontanile with its imposing Church of St. John having a dome of a raging size.
From there it is set aside by climbing up the hill by arriving at the top of the hill, you are redeemed in the middle of the vineyard by carrying out on the right and you proceed to the bottom of the yarn, turn right by climbing up the hill and arriving at the top of the top, on the left. From here you proceed and proceed to the path to the third boat : at this point it is possible to scroll through a breathtaking panorama without almost seeing the hand of man.
As you go down the path, you get to the bottom of the road, you turn to the left and you continue in the middle of the vines starting to go down to the bottom of the hill, turning to the right back to the road and then continuing to the ponticello, here you turn left and go back to the hillside along the path to a crossroads to which you have to take to the right to arrive at the boat number 4 : from here you can see the country of Castelletto seen from above, the vineyard rich in vineyards, the country of Fontanile seen from another perspective, the country of Mombaruzzo in the distance and, with a bit of luck also the mountains innervate.
To be able to head to boat number 5, you need to get down the hill from the same side from where you have climbed and, who arrived at the bottom of the trail, you go back to the paved road by taking to the left and climbing down the hill by immersing yourself in the middle of the most complete nature until you arrive on a flat piece and you can take it to the left to climb along another side, and find on the right a vines and on the left of the herbs for bees, after a few metres you turn right and you proceed to the picnic area with the boat.
From there you go down in the middle of the vines, heading back down the road and you are continuing to rise in the direction of Brich Oddone. Before you arrive at Brich Oddone you will find yourself on the right the boat number 6. Continuing along the path, you turn left to the top and you continue down the road (council : looking around because there is a crazy view at 360 degrees) to the bottom, you turn to the left and go back to the bottom of the road, you turn left again and proceed to the crossroads where you need to take a left down the descent until you see on the right the boat number 7.

THE UPPER SABINA
The eleventh stage of the GTL changes the landscape once again: we move away from the Apennines for the lower Sabine Mountains, heading west. But the lower altitudes should not deceive, since the slopes of these hills often prove to be more challenging and hard than the mountains proper, with their sudden and violent ups and downs. From Rieti we leave for the beautiful village of Contigliano, on little-frequented and lonely roads among olive trees and vineyards. We are a few steps from Greccio, a medieval town famous for its nativity scenes, certainly worthy of a detour. Hairpin bends, climbs and descents follow one another, giving villages resting on the "hillocks", the heights chosen for settlements since ancient times: Cottanello, Casperia, Cantalupo in Sabina. Only the end of the stage and the arrival in the Tiber valley offers a bit of descent and respite, up to the railway station of Stimigliano, the end of the stage – and a public velodrome, that of Forano.

Itinerario ad anello misto, di asfalto e sterrato, tra castagni e roveri fino alla borgata Le Trune: inconsueto embrione di ecovillaggio rinato da antichi ruderi riconquistati alla vegetazione da un gruppo di giovani pionieri alpini. Di li fino a Frassinere per poi ridiscendere a Mocchie, un tempo popoloso comune della valle, dove consigliamo di addentrarsi fino alla piazza della chiesa per ammirare l'imponente facciata barocca e lo spettacolare panorama che si apre dalla piazza antistante. All'uscita del paese trovate la Trattoria del Sole dove Francesca, la cuoca e titolare, vi attende a pranzo o merenda per farvi gustare antipasti e altri deliziosi piatti della cucina piemontese arricchiti di fantasia e passione.
