Private Vespa Ride from Alba into Alta Langa Hazelnut Country and Barolo, up to 750 m
Ratings collected by Viator and Tripadvisor
Langhe-Roero and MonferratoThis private ride climbs through the Barolo vineyards and touches Alta Langa, the area known for growing hazelnuts. The route reaches 750 m of altitude, which makes it a good pick for hot summer days. It passes through typical villages away from the tourist routes, in an area still little discovered. Along the way you can taste hazelnut products such as spreads and pastries, on one of the most scenic roads of the area, while learning about the main natural resources of the Langhe. The ride starts in Alba, the capital of the Langhe, and runs about 75 to 80 kilometers. A professional guide explains what you are passing. Only your group rides with the guide, so the length of the route can be adapted to what you want. Riding experience on scooters or motorcycles is required.
