Apulia Hiking & Trekking Tours

You'll walk 13 kilometers from Alberobello to Locorotondo's hilltop through olive groves and UNESCO-protected trulli houses, then hike 7 kilometers on the Murgia plateau to find ancient Rupestrian churches with views over Matera's Sassi district carved into limestone cliffs and trek through Agnano Archaeological Park.

Traditional farms, historic towns, and baroque cities reveal their secrets during 2-4 hour guided walks, creating intimate connections to local traditions and gastronomy.

Apulia's architectural treasures and coastal beauty merge in this walking adventure, featuring distinctive lodging, regional cuisine, and routes through UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Ten hiking days average 4-5 hours each through Apulia's gorge landscapes, with routes ranging from easy 14-kilometer walks to strenuous 28-kilometer stages. The self-guided trail descends into the Matera Gorge past Roman-era cave churches, follows the rim of the 200-meter-high Laterza Gorge, and takes you through the Triglie gorge's Mediterranean maquis near Masseria Amastuola. GPS tracks, luggage transfers between towns, and Apulian snack eco-bags are included while you navigate paths through Monte Camplo nature reserve's Macedonian oak forests and centuries-old olive groves.

Hike through Apulia's UNESCO-listed Itria Valley past ancient olive groves and vineyards from Fasano to Alberobello's iconic trulli houses, while the coastal trail from Savelletri to Monopoli offers great Adriatic Sea views and you'll check out Polignano a Mare's cliffs along the way.

Hike the Hellenic Way starting from UNESCO-protected Alberobello, trekking through ancient tratturi sheep paths and dry stone walls declared UNESCO Intangible Heritage. A 20 km walk through olive groves leads to Ostuni's Archaeological Park of Santa Maria di Agnano, then crosses the plain of millennial olive trees to Carovigno. You'll finish with a 27 km coastal walk through Torre Guaceto nature reserve along the medieval Via Traiana to Brindisi.

The UNESCO-listed Sassi di Matera offers walks through ancient cave churches carved into limestone cliffs that date back thousands of years. Coastal trails from Ostuni lead to hidden coves along the Adriatic, passing through olive groves and Mediterranean macchia. You'll walk the Gargano Peninsula's forest paths in Foresta Umbra (ages 16+), then see Alberobello's trulli houses on guided village walks through this UNESCO World Heritage site.
