There are several places to rent bicycles or tandems, making the visit easy and accessible even without your own bike.

The Grumentum Archaeological Park preserves, within an exceptionally suggestive landscape, the remains of one of the major Roman cities of Regio III: Lucania et Bruttii. Initially a small Lucanian center allied with Rome, settled since the beginning of the 3rd century BC, it was crossed by Hannibal during the Second Punic War, when he took the side of the Carthaginians, and was the scene of a battle narrated by Livy. Following a slow process of Romanization, which provided for land assignments to the Romans through the centuriation system, the center was monumentalized starting from the middle of the 1st century BC, when it was refounded as a Roman colony. From this period onwards, it was equipped with all the typical monuments of Roman cities, in imitation of the Urbe. Today the site, a unique example in Basilicata of a Roman urban plan that is clearly legible as a whole, allows a visit through the public and private spaces of the Roman city, still delineated by the regularity of the ancient road axes. From the theater you can reach the Italic temple, the domus with mosaics and, along the paving of the main plateia, the area of the Forum with public, civil and religious buildings (Capitolium, Augusteo, Porticus, Curia, Basilica, Forensic Baths). The route then continues to the Terme Maggiori, an extraordinarily preserved thermal complex, rich in luxurious decorative apparatus (mosaics, imported marbles...), to the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta, which represents the first cathedral when the center became the seat of a bishop. The route ends near the monumental amphitheater, one of the oldest masonry amphitheaters known to us. Strategically positioned on the eastern edge of the hill, it is located overlooking the Pietra del Pertusillo Lake, in the heart of the Appennino Lucano National Park. A visit to Grumentum allows you to fully appreciate the close relationship between archaeology and nature, between landscape and culture.

This small lake basin is a regional nature reserve. The reserve was established in the 1980s as a wetland of international interest and is currently managed by the WWF through a local association. There is a cycle/pedestrian path that allows you to go around the lake completely, admire the animals that populate the area and immerse yourself in nature.

Archaeological area of the ancient Roman Grumentum.

At this point you can find a small bench where you can take a break next to the river, always remembering respect for nature.
