만두리아 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

The scarecrows signal that we are almost at Villa Castelli

From Grottaglie to Nardò, the bike path is nonexistent. The route I trusted consists mostly of municipal roads and country paths that run alongside the aqueduct. The bike path is barely signposted, but it doesn't exist yet.

The Ulmo Pine Forest, featuring a picnic area equipped with wooden tables and benches, extends over approximately ten hectares in the Ceglie Messapica area, in the heart of the Itria Valley. It's the ideal place to spend a relaxing day with friends and family, sheltered by the shade of the Mediterranean scrub and dense Aleppo pine forest, or simply to take a break before continuing your exploration of the surrounding countryside and the nearby towns of the Itria Valley.

The path is partly made up of a wooden walkway. It allows you to reach Porto Cesareo practically from the beach.

Manduria (Greek: Μανδόριος or Μανδόνιον, Latin: Manduria or Manduris, originally Casalnuovo) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Taranto in the Apulia region of Italy. It has a population of approximately 30,000.

Completed in 2024, this pier aims to enhance the southern coast of Porto Cesareo, rich in small ports nestled in the clear, emerald water of the Strea bay. And it succeeds very well. Beautiful to ride, it is part of the CICLONICA route, the Salento Ionian Cycle Route.

In some parts the sand on the trail is quite thick: if you are travelling with a very heavy bike it might be better to push it.
