The Puglia peninsula

Set course for the heel of Italy's boot, the Puglia region, where life is good and cycling is easy.

Discover its two coasts, bordering the Adriatic and Ionian Seas, brimming with history, olive groves and shades of blue that will fill your eyes with happiness.

Between trullis - round houses with conical roofs - and sassi - the region's famous troglodyte dwellings, you'll explore places where tradition and history are consummated in complete tranquillity, including Baroque and Romanesque masterpieces such as the cathedrals and basilicas in Gallipoli, Otranto, Brindisi and Alberobello.

You'll take gentle routes that allow you to fully appreciate the languorous pace of life in small villages, like a journey back in time to a simpler era, both eyes in the big Mediterranean blue.
