Matera is a city on a rocky outcrop in the region of Basilicata, in southern Italy. It includes the Sassi area, a complex of cave dwellings carved into the mountainside. Evacuated in 1952 due to poor living conditions, t...
Round tour in the Riserva Regionale dei Calanchi.
With this starting point you can climb first, visit Montalbano Jonico, and decend after, which I believe is nicer than descending first from the Panoramic Viewpoint whe...
An easy hike from a camperspot Radogna passing the Gravina canyon twice. As we start off crossing the highlands Matera is already dooming up in a distance. As we descend down the canyon you come across several caves and ...

I hike this trail in both directions, but recorded only descent. Trail is pretty obvious - in the forest it is well throdden path, somewhere even road, with red-white signs on the trees and in the upper side of the trail...
This is a little known park and this is too bad as it is very beautiful and green. Therefore, I decided to create a day hike trail in the park so more will enjoy it.

Park at Maratea (few free parking available). We took a "long route" since the whole Ferrata is short in general.
Head up following the car road turning left just outside the parking lot. Follow the turns up until you r...

A simple walk through the dense forest near the 2 lakes. It combines some other walks already published. But this track combines them in a nice circular walk. The track w...

The phenomenon of the Rupestral Churches of Murgia park in Matera!Without a doubt, one of the most spectacular rupestrian landscapes of Italy witnessing the ancient relationship between man and nature.

Learn from our mistakes and do the loop the other way round: start left (not going up the mountain, yet). Great views, and yes you will get to the top.
Hikers that have visited Matera and watched over the gorge must have had the urge to hike through it to the other side.
There are plenty of tracks visible, but many have dead-ends as I found out the hard way. After tr...

A "classic" loop that touches all five major peaks in Pollino National Park, with a small off-trail variation from Serra Dolcedorme to Serra delle Ciavole.
Part 1: Colle Impiso - Serra del Prete - Piano Gaudolino ...
Nice walk with good views. The trail is not difficult. The first part of the walk is the most interesting. The second part is ascending on steep asfalt roads towards the village. The last 1,5 or 2 km’s are along the stra...
There is no dicernible path, so it is scrambling through the woods and over the pastures. Not suitable for people with vertigo: in one part climbing over a small ridge with deep drops on both sides. Otherwise: it is beau...
A loop leaving Irsina through the Porta Arenacea - one of three gates in the centro storico, and arriving back by the Bottini fountains using lanes through the countryside.
Beautiful light hike with stunning views over Matera and the gorge. Many interesting caves and chapels during hike.
Nice that it a circular trail and great to start early to avoid the crowds!
Few walks manage to combine an urban and nature setting in one outing as well as this one does. Matera is a UNESCO heritage site and has a history that dates back thousands of years. Known for its old centre, or Sassi wh...
