Head to the heel of Italy's boot, the region of Puglia, where life is good and cycling is a pleasure. Discover its two coasts, bordering the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea, brimming with history, olive trees, and shades of blue that will fill your eyes with joy.
Between trullis—round houses with conical roofs—and sassi—the region's famous cave dwellings—you will travel through places where tradition and history are enjoyed in complete tranquility. You will take gentle paths that allow you to fully appreciate the languid pace of life in small villages, like a journey back in time to a simpler era, with your eyes fixed on the deep blue Mediterranean.
