The search for truffles is one of the most traditional activities that can be carried out in Piedmont and the Gastronomic Trails want to offer you this fantastic adventure in Piedmont, the region that more than any other has made this extraordinary product famous in the world.

Follow the expert “trifulau” (truffle hunters) and, together with the trusted “tabui” (truffle dogs) you will come across the precious and fragrant underground mushrooms. More than anything else, you will be amazed by the unique atmosphere that surrounds this mysterious and exclusive world, full of secrets that are handed down from father to son among the trifulau of these lands.

The direct contact with the life of the forest, walking among the ancient trees of the Piedmontese woods, hearing the sounds and breathing the scents … all this will lead you into a magical, almost fairy world, an emotion that you will carry with you for a long time and that you will want to relive!

We remind you that “The Truffle Search” is simulated and prepared in an absolutely faithful way, in order to make you relive in a real and authentic way the emotions and sensations of a real search, which would however require much longer times. Beware of those who offer tour packages that pass off as real experiences like this.
