Park - Frazioni di Villa Basilica - Return
Welcome to a journey through the charming historic hamlets of Villa Basilica, where picturesque villages, lush nature, and ancient traditions intertwine to offer a taste of life from the past. This itinerary, ideal for a cycling excursion, will take you to discover small gems such as Duomo, Guzzano, Rimogno, Botticino, Pracando, Pontoro, San Marco, and Capornano.
You will travel along winding roads, ancient paths, and forests of chestnut and beech trees, experiencing a route that blends history, spirituality, and natural beauty. Each hamlet, with its unique identity, will reveal its hidden corners step by step. This is a very special tour, as it allows you to step back in time by visiting tiny hamlets—don’t expect grandeur, but rather simplicity and silence.
The most beautiful part of the journey is the route winding through narrow streets and historic connections, passing through small villages inhabited by only a few dozen families, offering places rich in history and memory.
The tour will conclude by passing through Villa Basilica, with its imposing thousand-year-old Romanesque church, before continuing toward the Adventure Park.
Take your time to stop in the various villages and immerse yourself in the nature and stories of each place, making this tour a unique opportunity to rediscover the deep roots of this territory.
