BYKING AND TREKKING IN LANGA AND ROERO
Alta Langa and Roero must have been designed by God for the fitness aficionados: trekking, cross country running, bike riding, both mountain and road. With a twist: at the end of your sweat you can enjoy a real gourmet snack, even a lunch, at any of the numerous bars and restaurants you have passed by while working out, or drink a glass of Barolo, Barbaresco or Barbera. Should you want to, you can also enjoy a glass or two of the fresh and crystalline water out of the well in Corte di Langa courtyard. This is, after all, the same well all labourers and villagers used to come to, to quench their thirst, as well as carrying its water home for cooking.
These are some selected website you can get info on your sport activities while in Corte Di Langa.
The Fausto Coppi Epic, a non competitive byke race: held on the 4th of July (Independence Day for those coming from the States) this race is meant for all serious bikers. The website is available in German, and in English, so you can easily register without Claudia's or Franco's assistance. But, please, be sure you're in shape to participate: this is serious biking. Should you be more of an amateur biker, an easier variant of the race can be chosen or go to Langhe and Roero Ciclotutismo for a selection of road byking tours.
Trekking is another favourite: in Langhe as well as in Roero
