GAME ‘THE RIDDLES OF PLUF – THE PACT WITH THE DEVIL’

GAME ‘THE RIDDLES OF PLUF – THE PACT WITH THE DEVIL’

Gli Enigmi di Pluf’ in the Maira Valley version “Il patto con il diavolo” (The pact with the devil) is a cyclo-tourist proposal for families, to discover the territory and in particular a part of the “Ciclovia Bassa Valle Maira” itinerary involving the municipalities of Dronero, Cartignano, Roccabruna and Villar San Costanzo. To play the game, it will be necessary to help Caterina Olivero, an inhabitant of Dronero who collects old documents, to solve some enigmas.

Caterina has found a 15th century coded document containing a new version of the legend of the Devil’s Bridge… She is determined to unravel the mystery, but some missing words make the text difficult to understand. Her search is well under way, but Catherine needs help to analyse the clues she has collected, find the missing words and discover the true story.

To help Caterina, an investigator’s kit will be made available to you, available from the Porta di Valle – Tourist Office in Dronero.

Other versions of the Vélo-Pluf game await you in the Po, Bronda, Infernotto, Varaita, Grana and Stura Valleys and on the French side of the Queyras.

VÉLO-PLUF! – The cycling family is a single project financed by the ‘Transition’ call of the Interreg VI-A France-Italy programme (ALCOTRA) 2021 – 2027.
