Opis

The itinerary is a small journey to discover the excellent products of Roero, which starts precisely from Bra, departing point of the tour, a city rich in history and art which will know how to welcome you with its museums, Baroque churches and buildings, historical coffee shops and its typical products (the sausage of Bra, the Dop Bra cheese and the Mac bun of Bra..), worthy of the city that is the headquarters of the Slow Food movement.

Depart from the panoramic point of the Zizzola (the home of the people of Bra) and continue in the direction of Santa Vittoria d’Alba for a brief section along the main road (be careful of the traffic which is particularly intense!), before moving on to secondary roads that offer a magnificent view of the Tanaro Valley following the route uphill which takes to the medieval village dominated by the castle (today private) and by the impressive square tower, from the top you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Roero. From Santa Vittoria, continue towards Monticello d’Alba and, having crossed the town, climb towards the historic centre where the magnificent Castle of Conti di Roero offers a valid excuse for a break. Having descended to the foot of the hill, continue on long straight sections in a north-easterly direction towards Corneliano d’Alba where you can admire a rare example of polygonal tower with ten sides, which was once the donjon of the ancient castle. From here, crossing the hamlets of San Giuseppe and Rossi, proceed along the provincial road (careful: these roads are quite busy!) to reach Pocapaglia with its historic centre perched on the ridges of the Rocche, from which you can enjoy some of the most enchanting panoramas of the geological ridge made of cliffs and chasms of sandy walls, whose formation seems to be due to a phenomenon of erosion known as the “capture of the Tanaro”. Wild and labyrinth-like, due to the dark and gloomy environment they create, the Rocche have inspired legends connected to the “masche” (witches in Piedmontese dialect), like those of the Masca Micillina which according to popular tradition lived and worked in Pocapaglia until they were burnt at the stake. Not to be missed is a visit to the Eco museum Rocche e Masche which preserves trades, memories and traditions of Roero to continue towards Bra, where our tour ends, across the hamlet known as “America dei Boschi” where it is worth stopping at the Shrine of Madonna dei Fiori.

Informacje o wycieczce

The Roero Bike Tour is an acronym that encompasses an entire territory. We are in Roero, a portion of hills that flank the left bank of the Tanaro river, which separates it from the Langhe up to bordering the provinces of Turin and Asti. Here human activities, crops and historic villages are part of a still wild nature, made up of thick vegetation and rugged hills. It was the noble Roero family from Asti, who already owned the majority of castles and lands in the Middle Ages, who gave the area its name. A land of passage, still today characterized by a strong mercantile and hospitality vocation dating back centuries.

POINTS OF INTEREST

STAGE 1 - Borbore (Vezza d'Alba) - Montà Connection path between the two souls of Roero, the one that looks at the Langhe and the one that runs along the Rocche ridge, the route takes us from Vezza to Montà, passing through Canale, crossing different thematic paths.

VARIANT 1A – Canale – Loc. Rocca Tagliata (Canale) Variation of the previous stage, the route leads to the isolated town of Rocca Tagliata, first covering a long stretch of Path S1, then of Sentiero del Castagno, extending into the territory of Cisterna d' Asti, with the possibility of arriving at Montà.

STAGE 2 - Montà - Monteu Roero Path along the Rocche ridge, admiring in ecstasy the miracle of the "capture" of the Tanaro, which has given us what you see before your eyes.

VARIANT 2A - Monteu Roero – Loc. Battagli (Vezza d'Alba) Variation of the RBT route, this stretch allows you to connect the two ridges of the Roero, pedaling alongside the Rocche ridge, to descend to the valley floor and up towards Vezza d'Alba.

STAGE 3 - Monteu Roero - Pocapaglia This part of the route leads us to pedal on the historic "Grande Sentiero del Roero", which winds along the ridge of the Rocche, immersed in the "Silva Popularis", the last large forest of the Po Valley.VARIANT 3A Loc. Saliceto (Pocapaglia) – Loc. San Sebastiano (Pocapaglia) A variation on the main RBT route, the route makes a loop through a wooded and flat area that extends as far as the municipality of Sanfrè, dominated by its mighty castle.

STAGE 4 – Pocapaglia – Monticello d'Alba Stage 4 of the Roero Bike Tour connects the Rocche ridge to the strip of central Roero villages and winds its way, for the first half, on paved country roads with low vehicular traffic.

STAGE 5 - Monticello d'Alba - Fraz. Borbore (Vezza d'Alba) Route along the passes of the S4 "Sentiero del Roero Centrale", which crosses the top villages of this part of the territory, and allows you to admire towers, castles and crops of fine fruits.

STAGE 6 – Frazione Borbore (Vezza d'Alba) – Govone An ideal continuation of the previous route, this section allows you to pedal up to Govone, on the outskirts of the province of Asti, crossing hills with vines, the heart of the production of the youngest Langhe Roero DOCGs.

VARIANT 6A – Castagnito - GuareneVariant to the official RBT route, this stretch connects the crest side of the Castagnito town to that of Guarene, offering unique views of Roero and the neighboring Langhe.

STAGE 7 – Govone – CastagnitoStage which allows us, by joining it to stage 6, to form a ring that connects all the top villages of this part of the Roero, however leading us to discover the secrets of the mills and the crossings along the Tanaro.

VARIANT 7A – Località Sotteri (Guarene) - Guarene Variation to the official RBT route, this short section allows you to directly reach the village of Guarene, instead of completing the longer section passing by making a loop around the village of Guarene.
