Organizer: The Salento Trail is an indispensable bikepacking experience with a marvellous, mixed, dirt-asphalt route that leads you from San Cassiano to the sea, the Adriatic sea, the one north of Otranto, the one with the sandy coastline, to be precise. It does so by passing inland through the Salento countryside, crossing the signs left by a millenary history of peoples who have lived in these lands since the Neolithic age. As you pedal, you will touch Menhirs and Dolmens from an age to which they are the only witnesses and cross unmistakable signs left by vanished civilisations (Messapi), then you will pedal along roads carved by the wheels of horse-drawn carts as far back as the Roman period, and then medieval farmhouses and villages and fortified masserie and forests from before the days of agriculture.
