THE RIVER TELLS ITSELF AND BECOMES EXPERIENCES

Educational farm

The historical and interactive "ORO DELL’ORBA" museum

Cascina Merlanetta is home to the historical and interactive "ORO DELL’ORBA" museum, the training plan includes a guided tour of the museum and a practical course on the use of the seeker's plate in tanks specially prepared in the company.

The research is done in concentrated gold sands so as to give the possibility to even the most inexperienced and children to recover a good booty (about half a gram) which they can then keep.

Adjacent to the museum of the gold digger is the "PORTI D’I BARLAFìS" or a very rich collection of tools of rural civilization used in past centuries by the local population.

THROUGH THE TRAINING ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT BY THE EDUCATIONAL FARM
FARMHOUSE "CASCINA MERLANETTA" IT IS POSSIBLE TO ENTER HANDS AND FEET IN THE WORLD OF THE GOLD FINDER.

After the learning course, visitors can rent the necessary equipment and, guided by the manager, move to the nearby bank of the stream to learn how to look for gold directly in the clear waters of the Orba.
