La Locanda dell’Olmo want to make your stay unforgettable. That’s why our activities are unique and unrepeatable experiences, as in the case of the truffle hunting. The black truffle research is a real “ritual” that sees at its base the extraordinary relationship between dog and truffle hunter. Our Tartufaio Mr. Gino has cultivated his passion over the years with perseverance, technique and “good legs”. With his loyal canine friend has scoured the hills and the woods surrounding La Locanda in search of the precious tuber. With Gino, we will approach with excitement to the moment when the dog feels the smell of the black truffle and the subsequent extraction of it. We will visit together the best paths, the most prolific lands, discovering all the secrets of the territory to hunt the most delicious tuber in the world. The month dedicated to this activity ranging from October to December: the day trip goes from 8.30 am to 11,30 am.
We recommend our guests to wear rubber boots or waterproof hiking shoes, bring a food reward for the dog (dry food or biscuits) and water. The small spade for extracting the truffles will be provided by Gino.
The cost of this tour is € 40.00 per person for adults, 5.00 € for children.
If after the trip you would be interested in buying the truffle, Gino will know how to advise you!
