Archeobike

Visits to sites, caves, towers, watchtowers, monasteries, Roman roads... Arqueobike is doing Archeology by bicycle. We approach the vestiges of other times in today's settings, we visit interpretation centers and museums. Through a bike tour, we explore and discover the material remains of a long time past. And whenever we can, we will share the route with expert archaeologists, or neighbors living in the area, who will help us better size the ruins and their findings.
