At 8:30 am, we'll meet at Piazza Piano della Corte in the heart of Castelsaraceno. There, we'll get on our electric bikes, put on our helmets and start a 40-kilometer bike ride (25 miles) through nature. Let's roll!

Throughout the ride, we'll follow a mix of asphalt and dirt paths while taking in the lush green forests of the Basilicata region.

As we cycle through Appennino Lucano-Val d'Agri-Lagonegrese National Park, we'll admire landscapes full of local flora and discuss the wildlife, including wild boars and wolves.

During the route, we'll also see Mount Raparo rising to 1761 meters above sea level (over 5700 feet).

We'll continue through Pollino National Park, the last Italian refuge of the Balkan pine, observing several specimens of these trees found in southeastern Europe, including Bulgaria, North Macedonia, and Greece.

The tour concludes at 2:30 pm back at the starting point.
