Bar To Bar: Barbaresco-Barolo
The Bar to Bar itinerary, a 7-stage circuit from Barbaresco to Barolo and back again (you can choose the direction), crosses a significant chunk of the Langhe Roero territory along low-traffic roads and trails, through woods and an array of uniquely beautiful landscapes.
You will visit medieval villages and see a great many of the area’s vineyards as you learn a bit about local history and nature, and you can choose between shorter routes or longer ones, both designed for hiking and off-road cycling.
 
The longer circuit features long climbs and steep descents and is recommended for expert cyclists, but there is always the ability to avoid the most difficult sections either by getting off and pushing or carrying your bike, by taking a shorter, paved detour between two points, or by making use of public transport. 

The shorter circuit leaves from Barbaresco and passes through Alba before following the Tanaro upriver into the Barolo region from Roddi – Verduno - La Morra and finally to Barolo. The longer circuit goes from Barbaresco through Neive and Treiso and on to the upper Langhe. After descending into the Belbo Valley, you will then climb back up to the Bossola pass and head back along the main ridge through the Langhe towards the Tanaro Valley. From Bossolasco - Serravalle and Roddino, the circuit goes through Serralunga and on to Monforte, Novello and Barolo. A variation from Serralunga to Castiglione Falletto - Monforte is also available.
 
Notes

The Bar to Bar itinerary is marked with two-way signs bearing the red-and-white markings typically used for hiking trails, as well as with signposts specifically for cyclists. Signs may fall down at times, but very often there are also (red and white) markings on trees and rocks pointing you in the right direction, especially in the woods and far from paved roads.
