Full description
If nature means adventure to you, this quad bike tour in the Majella National Park is just the thing for you!
With a local guide, you’ll have the chance to learn about the history of the Majella and the Giumentina Valley, whilst enjoying a ride through beech forests, valleys and archaeological sites dating back to the Palaeolithic era.
A one-and-a-half-hour excursion to unleash your inner adventurer!
What we will do
We’ll meet 15 minutes before the scheduled time at the meeting point in Abbateggio (PE). On arrival, we’ll meet the guide and have a brief briefing, during which we’ll be shown how the quad bike works. After that, we’ll go for a test ride to get to grips with the vehicle.
Then the adventure will begin! Riding our quad bikes, we’ll head along scenic trails nestled amongst valleys and beech woods. We’ll venture into the heart of the Giumentina Valley, getting up close to the nature and wildlife of the Majella National Park. There’ll be plenty of stops along the way, during which we’ll be able to chat with the guide or admire the archaeological excavations dating back to the Palaeolithic era.
We’ll see various artefacts and the famous dry-stone huts of Tholos, built by shepherds and farmers in the 1800s. The guide will accompany us throughout the excursion, sharing many stories and interesting facts about this fascinating place.
We’ll cover a total of 15 km, most of it on dirt tracks, driving for about an hour and a half. The activity will end with our return to the starting point and will last approximately 2 hours in total.
