The itineraries of “Underground Alba. Journey to the Center of the City” will be different date by date, both because of the large number of stops that can be visited and because of the needs of the managing bodies of the individual stages.

The itineraries are subject to change due to organizational reasons and the availability of individual stages; in case of rain, the activated rounds will still take place. Reservations are required. Update May 30.
