Riding your bike through the vineyards and the food and wine excellences of Cembra - Description

Short bike tour, through the ancient vineyards, for lovers of genuine products related to tradition and to the discovery of cultural-artistic gems.
A circular itinerary with your bike but also hiking (if you return on the same route). The watchword is "to taste": views, company, nature, tradition and food & wine excellences of the Cembra Valley. Starting from Lisignago, where you can already make the first small detour and visit the church of S. Leonardo, follow the streets along the terraced vineyards of the valley towards Cembra. Here you can taste different local products, from meats to wines, from vinegar to grappas and visit the old town center, where certainly you should stop and visit the church of San Pietro. The way back will be a relaxing descent, following the main road that goes back to Lisignago.
