Come visit us to enjoy one of the most authentic and exciting experiences that our region has to offer: truffle hunting in the woods and hills surrounding Acqualagna, the undisputed capital of this precious tuber. The adventure starts at 9:00 AM, departing from the Acqualagna Tartufi facility, located just two minutes from the village centre. Here you will meet the hunter and his faithful trained dog, ready to take you on a picturesque walk in the woods. You will come into contact with an ancient and fascinating world, made up of silence, anticipation, and sudden discoveries. Each step will be an opportunity to learn about the secrets passed down from generation to generation, the hunting techniques, and the deep connection that binds man, animal, and nature.
After the walk, the experience continues with a visit to the truffle processing plant, where a specialist guide will take you behind the scenes of the transformation: from the freshly harvested raw material to the finished product. You'll get a close-up look at the processes that preserve the unmistakable aroma of the truffle intact, transforming it into creams, sauces and culinary specialities appreciated around the world. At this point, the discovery will become sensory: in our store, a food tasting of typical local products awaits you, naturally paired with truffles, to best enhance their taste and understand their versatility in the kitchen. It's the perfect opportunity to be guided on a little journey through authentic flavours that speak of tradition and artisanal quality. The route concludes with lunch at Braceria Plinc, a renowned local restaurant that makes the most of local delicacies. Here you will enjoy a menu dedicated to black truffle with dishes that are symbolic of our cuisine: warm crostini enriched with black truffle cream, scrambled egg with generous shavings, and the ever-present fresh tagliatelle, prepared according to tradition, which releases all the aroma and intensity of this treasure of the earth. It's not just a lunch or a walk: it's an immersive and unforgettable experience that will let you experience the magic of the truffle from every point of view – from the exciting search in the woods, to the passionate stories of the harvesters, to the pleasure of the table. A unique opportunity to get to know the culture of the truffle up close, discover the authentic beauty of our region and take home an indelible memory made up of unforgettable scents, emotions and flavours.
