Discover the world of truffles with Gianluca Vichi, a true Gargonzino

Join Gianluca Vichi, a descendant of one of the farming families that lived in Gargonza during the time of the Fattoria, for an unforgettable experience discovering truffles, the most prized underground fruit. Accompanied by the sweet Lagotto dogs, true experts in finding this delicacy, you will spend a fascinating morning in the Gargonza park, right beneath its historic walls.

During the activity, Gianluca will share fascinating anecdotes about life in Gargonza not many years ago, before taking part in a hands-on truffle hunting demonstration with a truffle hunter and his dogs. You’ll learn about the truffle’s origins, its various species, and the life of the forest floor.

The truffle hunt takes place in the park next to the village and concludes with a delicious lunch featuring black truffle.

Truffle-Based Lunch
After the experience, enjoy a lunch with a truffle-based menu for €45.00 per person (including 3 courses, dessert, and 1 bottle of wine every 3 people). The cost for the truffle hunter will be quoted upon request.
