What we will do
We will meet the guide in Arrone (TR), where the guide will be waiting for us and will accompany us throughout the excursion. We will have a short briefing lasting about 30 minutes, during which the guide will explain the route to us.
Once the briefing is over, we will all board the shuttle that will take us to the starting point in Santanatolia di Narco. We will thus begin our wonderful ride, accompanied by the flowing waters of the River Nera, whose bed skirts the flat stretch we will ride along.
Our route coincides exactly with the section of the old railway that connected the two Umbrian towns of Spoleto and Norcia. We will thus be able to travel through a peculiar territory with no less than five viaducts and three short tunnels. The latter are not equipped with artificial lighting and will give us the thrill of plunging into anatmosphere suspended in time.
The 38 km route in total will end in Santanatolia di Narco, where we will take the shuttle bus back to the starting point. The excursion lasts about 4 hours.
