Autumn trips have always been the most beautiful trips and the Valle d'Itria is particularly suitable for a weekend away, both for the mild air, with clear and sunny days, and for its flavors and above all for the colors most spectacular that can be admired. This is why we advise you to take a break in the countryside of the Valley and to wander around the villages enjoying the last warm rays of the sun.
How beautiful and unique, for example, is the panorama that can be admired from the Belvedere of Via Nardelli, in Locorotondo, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, where the sunset offers unrepeatable scenarios up to Martina Franca, capital of the Apulian Baroque.
Not to mention the Cathedral of Ostuni, whose rose window, at sunset, is illuminated by the warm colors of the sun that stand out even more the white of the stone or the trulli of Alberobello colored by golden rays that you can admire from the Belvedere of Santa Lucia.
If, on the other hand, you want to admire more closely the spectacle of the leaves that are tinged with different shades such as yellow, purple red to orange, we advise you instead to enjoy beautiful walks in the Bosco delle Pianelle, in Martina Franca, which will give you moments unforgettable, surprising you with many initiatives between nature and taste. Here you can discover the typical annual mushrooms and their importance for the ecosystem.
Also for lovers of walking and trekking, it is possible to walk among the oak woods, between Gorgofreddo and Galeone, to see the shapes of Lamianuova, the open-air cisterns of the south-eastern Murgia.
Or even reach the area between Gravina Pistone and Cisternino to admire the various karst shapes such as the blade of Petto Polombo characterized by dense and luxuriant vegetation.
Do not miss the hills of Zuzu ', where you can take an unforgettable naturalistic excursion following the crest of the Murge between Tumbinno and Zuzu', two districts of Locorotondo.
If, on the other hand, you are passionate about art and photography rather than walking, we advise you not to miss the Phest - International Festival of Art and Photography which has been held in Monopoli for 4 editions already divided into 17 exhibitions scattered around the city.
It will be open until November 1st. For info: https://www.phest.info/
During this period, we also recommend that you visit the suggestive Castellana Caves with their stalactites, stalagmites and columns of brilliant crystals. Spectacularly beautiful is the White Grotto so called because of its whiteness and which makes it the brightest cave in the world.
During the autumn, guided tours take place every day at different times. For info: http://www.grottedicastellana.it/
