The activity is also suitable for children. During the rafting you can have fun at the adventure park above the trees with Tibetan bridges, monkey bridges, Tyrolean and cableways, all in a very special environment: that of the river.

CURED MEATS

The history of the cured meats stems from the customs of the ancient countryside families, who were used to eating all parts of the pork. Great attention was paid to the diet of the pig, which was fed with acorns and pigswill. Nowadays this aspect is still very important and it positively influences the quality of the cured meats (salumi).

Vincisgrassi

It’s a type of paste cooked in the oven, similar to lasagna, typical of Le Marche region and of the places in Umbria region, neighbouring Macerata. The difference with the lasagna is in the type of ragù sauce, made with thicker bits of meat, and in the white sauce, which is more compact. Besides that, the taste of the spices (such as cloves and nutmeg) is stronger than in the lasagna.

CHEESE PIZZA

In Le Marche region, there’s no Easter without cheese pizza, whose aroma fills the house and whets the appetite. Ideal to accompany cured meats, it has the shape of a panettone, but instead of being sweet, it’s savoury.
