An adventure full of surprises

For those who love challenges and competition, the Biella region offers the
chance to try their hand at a wide range of exciting sports and experiences: bungee jumping, adventure parks, golf, aerial and water sports, the latter especially at Lake Viverone, as well as canyoning on the Elvo stream.

The area is also ideal for equestrian sports: the wide variety of environments, from the plains to the Alps, make it particularly suitable for splendid horseback riding excursions through nature reserves, nature oases, sanctuaries, and small villages.

A key place to experience the outdoors and sports in the Biella area is Bielmonte. Nested in the heart of Oasi Zegna, it is a family-friendly ski resort par excellence in winter. Many services and activities are designed especially for families, like 18 km of downhill slopes suitable for skiers of all levels, and 20 km of cross-country trails, snowshoeing, even under the moonlight, ice-skating, and gourmet breaks to savor the genuine flavors of the tradition, all in a magical atmosphere of silence and harmony with the surrounding nature.

In spring, summer, and fall, the area is an ideal place for activities like hiking, mountain biking, forest bathing, horseback riding, Nordic walking, and air sport. It maintains a special focus on children and families, with offerings such as the Adventure Forest and the Forest of Smiles, Bielmonte Summer Kids entertainment, and, on weekends, a full calendar of festivals and events.

The Biellese is also a true paradise for bicycle lovers in all its forms, thanks to the possibility of practicing this sport in very different contexts. For those who love road biking, it is possible to retrace the climbs that made the Giro d'Italia great, such as the famous "Pantani" climb from Biella to the Sanctuary of Oropa.

For gravel bikes, or MTBs lovers, on the other hand, the fun they are looking for is offered by dirt roads, forests, and mountains of the Province such as the routes of the Baraggia and Bessa nature reserves on the Serra Morenica or Mount Casto in Oropa Valley, or even the adrenaline-pumping routes of the Enduro Bike Parks of Oasi Zegna, and Rive Rosse.

Of note for two-wheelers is the "Unesco Grand Tour of Piedmont" a route of about 600 kilometers to discover the UNESCO sites and Nature Reserves of Piedmont, which in the Biella area touches on the Sanctuary and Sacro Monte of Oropa, the city of Biella and Oasi Zegna.
