From the land of the Sassi, your 140 km journey with 3,500 meters of elevation gain begins, taking you on a long adventure to discover the Terra delle Gravine. Between Basilicata and Puglia, the route is challenging, with many single tracks running alongside and crossing some of the largest canyons in Europe.
The final part of the course will gently lead you towards the sea, with the last kilometers unfolding along the beautiful beach of Castellaneta Marina.
