Gubbio and Bottacione Gorge: discovering human and extraterrestrial stories
- Requirements: suitable for all
- Height difference: about 150 meters
- Duration: half day
We dedicate this day to learning about Gubbio, a true pearl of the Middle Ages: we reach the door of St. Ubaldo, patron saint of Gubbio, then we skirt the ancient medieval walls and walk along the route of the ancient medieval aqueduct, entering the heart of the Cooper’s Gorge, a geological site of international interest for the definition of the dinosaur extinction theory, which we can “read” and interpret in the stratifications of the rocks, which, like an open book, will tell their story.
We discover the natural beauty of the area, pausing at some significant and scenic spots. Back in the center, we can have a small tasting of typical local products, which will make us better appreciate the beauty and good tastes of these places.
At the end (or at the beginning of our activity, depending on museum availability), we will visit the “Extinction” exhibit, where we can go back in time to hundreds of millions of years ago with life-size models of dinosaurs and organisms (unique in Italy).
