Tips
Ancient commercial link up to Gallipoli, this oil road has now several kilometers buried and lost in private properties ... But what remains is astounding. The furrows of the tow wheels in the outcropping rock speak volumes

A mule track that opens a glimpse into the economic history of Salento. The ancient "via te l'oju", an important artery for transporting lampante oil towards Gallipoli, port and sorting center for this precious resource which has shaped the territory up to the present day.
