Langhe Experience - Personal Travel AdvisorAn authentic and meaningful experience that combines the magic of the Alba White Truffle hunt - Unesco Intangible Cultural Heritage - with the opportunity to leave a tangible mark on the Langhe hills by planting a truffle-host tree and contributing to the biodiversity essential to the future of truffles in the Langhe.
Guided by an expert Trifolau and his trusty dog, you will venture into the woods to experience the thrill of the hunt, breathing in the rich aromas of the earth and listening to age-old stories and traditions.
At the end of the experience, you’ll be invited to plant a truffle-host tree (oak, linden, hornbeam or hazel), with the support of our Trifolau.
A symbolic and concrete act of love for this land, allowing you to personally contribute to protecting the ecosystem and preserving local heritage.
You will receive a Truffle Tree Adoption Certificate, personalized with your name and the planting date.
