카스텔라네타‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 협곡

The Via Ellenica del Cammino Materano is one of the most evocative variants of the route, crossing breathtaking landscapes and historical sites. Passing through the Gravina di Laterza, it offers an extraordinary immersion in wild nature, between deep canyons and imposing rock walls, habitat of birds of prey and protected fauna. This stretch connects the territories of Magna Graecia, rich in history and culture, up to Matera, capital of the Sassi. Ideal for hikers looking for an authentic experience between uncontaminated nature and ancient traditions.

Grotta Croce, located in Gravina di Laterza, is one of the many karst caves in this suggestive canyon in Puglia. Famous for its natural beauty and historical interest, the cave offers spectacular limestone formations. Explored by speleology enthusiasts and hikers, it is part of the Terra delle Gravine Natural Park, an area rich in biodiversity and characterized by deep ravines and hidden caves. Grotta Croce also has archaeological value, with finds that testify to human presence in ancient times.

Perhaps the route of a disused railway line

Little known compared to other places in Puglia, but the historic center of Laterza, overlooking a beautiful and green ravine, is absolutely worth a visit.

For a break, a stop at the bar, or to stock up on water at the public fountains

Santa Lucia Bridge, a disused railway bridge over the ravine of the same name

Little known compared to other places in Puglia, but the historic center of Laterza, overlooking a beautiful and verdant ravine, is absolutely worth a visit.

Very suggestive panoramic point along the path 3 of the Gravina di Laterza, a deep and spectacular canyon formed by limestone rocks eroded by water which has caves, spiers and pinnacles. The protected natural area is managed by Lipu and is home to many species of birds, plants and animals. It is part of the Terra delle Gravine regional natural park.
