ヴィーコデルガルガノ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

(...continued) Only downstream from the point where the road used by local vehicles diverges from the streambed is the latter periodically left to the sole maintenance work of passing flocks and livestock. This isn't a problem if you're traveling on foot, but on a mountain bike, it's even more advisable to tackle the downhill section, as the very slight incline will greatly facilitate progression, saving effort for the more experienced or avoiding annoying interruptions for the less experienced. It should be noted that, for the easiest and most well-trodden section alone, the more or less soft gravel surface extends for more than six kilometers, and can be a real test for those unable to maintain the momentum of a pace capable of overcoming resistance and swerving. However, there is the option of descending on a dirt road from Ischitella, traversing the most interesting segment of the canyon, and then escaping along the comfortable concrete road that exits the valley.

Cycling along the Rio Romandato's "sciumara" is extraordinary! This term refers to the bed of a karst stream, almost always dry due to the presence of countless cavities scattered throughout the subsurface where small and medium-sized rainfall finds its outlet, but subject to rare but powerful floods during particularly intense and prolonged storms. The navigability of these "sciumare" by bicycle cannot therefore be guaranteed, as it remains dependent on the rainfall patterns that periodically disturb the gravel on the riverbed. However, there are sections more frequently used by the vehicles of local shepherds and farmers, who promptly restore and keep them accessible, just as in this section carved into the rock like a canyon.

To see one of the most beautiful beech forests in the world.

Itineraries accessible to all...well signposted...relaxing landscapes

The Laghetto d'Umbra is a rainwater-fed lake. The turtles living here were released, but they seem to thrive here.

Don't miss, if you're in the Bosco Quarto, with its hornbeams and beech trees, the Ragusa Valley, formed by one of the numerous east-west oriented tectonic fissures that mark the Gargano promontory between the Umbra Forest and the area of San Marco in Lamis. It's very easy to cycle through and can be reached by anyone with a basic understanding of cartography and navigation, yet the impression is of being immersed in an environment profoundly removed from any human presence. On the southern slope, near Coppa del Giglio and Casa Natura, runs what was the line of a Decauville a century ago.

Fantastic view of Vieste and the rock. The beach is not really for me. More information about the rock: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pizzomunno?wprov=sfla1

A beautiful walk in the Umbra forest in the Gargano region that starts from Laghetto d'Umbra near Caserma dei Carabienieri Forestali and follows the path to Caserma Murgia. From here you can deviate a bit to visit the ruins and then return along the path to Lago d'Otri, a small lake in the Gargano forest.
