Quad bike tour to the Silver Mine in Alto Garda Bresciano

Thumb on the gas, heart racing and off you go: the adventure begins here!

Set off from Sabbio Chiese for a quad bike excursion into the wild heart of Alto Garda Bresciano, with a guide ready to take you off the beaten track. In 2 hours you will not only tame the dirt road, but you will arrive where few dare: in front of the tunnel of an ancient Roman silver mine.

The quad bike is ready. You?

What we will do

We’ll meet at the specified time in Sabbio Chiese, less than an hour from Brescia.

Before starting the engines, we’ll meet the CONI-qualified instructor who’ll be accompanying us on the excursion. A brief theoretical briefing will introduce us to how the quad bike works and the basic riding techniques for this vehicle.

We’ll set off on an adventure along a mixed route: we’ll pass through a few mountain villages on tarmac before getting into the real fun on dirt tracks and through wooded areas. About halfway through the journey, we’ll leave the quads in the countryside for a short walk downhill that will take us straight to the entrance of the Roman silver mine. We’ll enter the tunnel to discover the stories and legends of this place.

After about 30 minutes of exploration, we’ll get back on our quads to tackle the second part of the route, enjoying the ride amidst the panoramic views of the Upper Garda area. We’ll finally return to the starting point with just the right amount of mud and adrenaline.

The experience will last 2 hours, including the briefing.
