Acqualagna, a village wedged in the Furlo Gorge, in the province of Pesaro and Urbino, has all the climatic and environmental characteristics that make it one of the few areas where the truffles can be harvested and marketed throughout the year, providing ample opportunity to choose between all varieties of this popular product of land from white truffle typical of the place, the bianchetto, the prized black truffle and other blacks. A small distance from Acqualagna lays the Furlo Gorge: an overwhelming chalk formation which the Candigliano River cuts through in order to later join with the Metauro River. The drive from Acqualagna to this natural phenomenon is truly a thing of beauty. The mountainous terrain surrounding this gorge also offers challenging routes for hikers and mountain bikers. Their efforts will certainly be rewarded with spectacular views.
