Starting out from Montalbano, at the foot of the hills between Ostuni and Fasano, we cycle on a section of the Traiana road and go downhill towards the coast, where we will discover the coastal dune system – a small treasure of biodiversity made up of plants, trees, reptiles and birds typical of the wetlands. Later we’ll visit the organic fish farm, the origins of which date back to the middle ages, and is still able to tell us much about the ancient and diligent work of the river fishermen. On the way back we’ll be hitting the most cinematographic route in Puglia that will take us to the oldest megalithic monument in the Park: the Dolmen of Montalbano.
At the end of the tour, we’ll enjoy a fine selection of three local wines: white, rosè and red.
