Why this trip
Bari is often underestimated as a transit city: in Apulia a coast begins here with rock, olive groves and paths that lead to the water. The old town Bari Vecchia with the Basilica di San Nicola, the Castello Svevo and the Piazza Mercantile can be crossed on foot in the morning, before the sun stands too high. From here day tours begin into the hinterland and along the coast, for example by bicycle between olive trees or on paths along the Adriatic. The sea invites swimming, snorkelling and paddling.
April to June and September to October bring mild temperatures for walking routes. Fishing boats lie in the harbour, and the seafront promenade is suited to morning runs. If you want to explore the hinterland, drive to the Murgia with limestone plateaus and caves, where paths run through stone walls and fields. The region is flatter than the Alps, but not without challenge.
Lecce, the Amalfi Coast and Naples lie within reach as neighbours. How much travel time you want to plan for hikes is something you go through in the video call, so that the stages do not depend on long transfers.
