Overview

star-icon0.0 / 5
You will try the evocative experience of transhumance, or the accompaniment of a herd from the village of Sordevolo to the mountain pasture, together with the shepherdess Elisa and her family. You will descend, with a short walk, to the Trappa di Sordevolo where you can take a shower and have lunch with local products from the Slow Food Travel Montagne Biellesi Community. In the afternoon, when the experience is over, you can rest freely on the lawn or visit the building, a former monastery now an Ecomuseum of the Constructive Tradition. The magic of the mountains and its traditions await you!
