Visit Puglia Today by bicycle among ancient seaside villages, peasant landscapes, cities of art, natural parks and lots of crystal clear sea.
Discovering Puglia by bicycle among ancient seaside villages, peasant landscapes, cities of art, natural parks and lots of crystal clear sea will make your trip an unforgettable experience. Pedalling slowly among its gently undulating landscape you will grasp the essence of all the nuances, scents and beauty that this land offers.
Cycling in Puglia, you'll explore vineyards, coves and stunning coastline along the way.
So saddle up and let yourself be captured, for example, by the immense beauty of the Mediterranean steppe preserved in the Alta Murgia National Park and between jazzi and fortified farms, you will reach the imposing Castel del Monte, a UNESCO site since 1996.
For history buffs just follow the ancient Via Traiana to discover the Archaeological Park of Egnazia and its beautiful coastline.
A little further south, among farms and centuries old olive trees, you will find the landscape of the Dunes Coastal Park with both a wet area and a barren area characterised by blades to welcome you.
Cycling in Puglia is a little like riding through a cliché. Pedalling your way past Puglia olive trees, cellar-door wine tastings on the Puglian coast, tracing the gentle curve of the Murgia, Valle d’Itria and Salento or climbing switchbacks in the hills of the Murgia and Valle d’Itria Pianura – it’s easy to feel like you’ve cycled onto some faded postcard from the 50s. What you will experience? Authentic food and wine, singing bluebirds and breathtaking landscapes.
That’s the beauty of a Puglia cycling tour.
