ファッジャーノのおすすめランニングルート

Fantastically beautiful views of the sea. The water here is very clean and crystal clear. It sparkles and glitters in the sun ☀️. A feast for the eyes 👍

Beautiful panoramic viewpoint. It gets very crowded in the summer, and you have to zigzag through the crowds to complete your run. In the fall, you can enjoy spectacular sunsets while running.

track not suitable for road bikes, ok for mountain bikes, acceptable for gravel, often used by walkers.

Montedarena

Disused quarry between Faggiano and the hamlet of San Crispieri, where calcarenite was extracted, a sedimentary rock composed of calcite granules very common in the Taranto area and Salento. You walk immersed in a suggestive and disturbing panorama, among the abandoned buildings of the quarry.

Roccaforzata is the smallest municipality in the province of Taranto by resident population. It stands on a hill, the highest in the Serra di Sant'Elia, at an altitude of 145 metres. It has medieval origins and was inhabited by Albanian followers of Scanderbeg in the fifteenth century. Its name derives from the rock position that made it impregnable, and from the small Monte della Croce Park, just outside the town, you can enjoy the panorama towards the Gulf of Taranto.

Faggiano is a town in the province of Taranto that has been twinned with Bethlehem since 2017 and is famous for the living nativity scene that takes place every year on the hills around the town. The Mother Church of Faggiano is dedicated to Santa Maria Assunta and dates back to the 17th century. It has a Baroque facade with a stone portal and a bell gable.

The castle of San Giorgio Ionico is a recently built building commissioned by the D'Ayala-Valva counts in the 20th century and built on a hill overlooking the town. It is not a real medieval castle, but a stately residence with towers and battlements, still owned by the D'Ayala-Valva family. The castle cannot be visited and is surrounded by a park with secular trees and a chapel dedicated to the Madonna della Croce.
