    Hiking

    The Pulo di Altamura is the largest karst sinkhole in Alta Murgia, located 6 km north of Altamura, in Puglia. This natural formation has a diameter exceeding 500 meters and a depth between 70 and 75 metres. The site was inhabited in prehistoric times, and is full of caves, some of which contained traces of ancient human and religious settlements. Pulo is also a habitat for various unique plant and animal species.

    Special landscape. There was little going on and pleasantly quiet.
