- Borgo San Dalmazzo, famous for its local food and wine traditions offers multiple opportunities to combine culture and the outdoors by trekking among historic vineyards or passing through ancient mountain villages such as Chiusa Pesio or Roccaforte Mondovì; everyone will only need to choose how much time to devote to their passions!
Extra activities after the hike
