In summer, departure between 6.30 and 7 am is preferable due to traffic and weather.

The route starts at the Sanctuary of the Madonna dei Miracoli and then heads straight towards Castel del Monte. There are two really tough uphill sections (for me) with gradients of 7 to 9%. The return leg is almost entirely downhill, reaching speeds of up to 70 km/h, with the exception of two or three steep sections.

There are two trulli on the side of the hiking trail, one of which is open and takes you back in time.
