You push off from Martina Franca and the narrow streets open to limestone fields, low dry-stone walls daring you to keep a straight line. The route threads past cone-roofed trulli—whitewashed stone huts with circular plans—and into an agricultural landscape shaped by centuries of sheep, olive, and grape cultivation.

You push off from Martina Franca and the narrow streets open to limestone fields, low dry-stone walls daring you to keep a straight line. The route threads past cone-roofed trulli—whitewashed stone huts with circular plans—and into an agricultural landscape shaped by centuries of sheep, olive, and grape cultivation.
Geology here is a flat, calcareous plain cut by shallow karst and quarried for building stone; those same white rocks form the trulli and the countless muretti a secco (dry stone walls) that divide parcels. Culturally the Valle d'Itria sits between Martina Franca, Locorotondo and Cisternino, where local foodways center on small-scale vineyards, orecchiette pasta, and slow-paced village life. The winery visit completes the loop: a guided cellar tour explains local grape varieties (primarily primitivo and negroamaro blends in nearby zones), production steps, and a tasting that frames the ride.
Practically, expect about 30 km of mostly paved rural roads and compacted farm tracks with gentle rollers; elevation changes are modest but constant. E-bike assistance makes the distance accessible to most riders, though saddle comfort and core stability matter. Morning departures avoid summer heat; bring sunscreen, water, and a light wind layer. The host supplies bicycles and tastings; groups are small (max eight).
Plan for 3.5–4 hours total including the cellar visit. Photographic stops at trulli clusters and limestone outcrops are frequent—leave time to walk short stretches and to slow down for the villages. The tour balances gentle effort with sensory rewards: wind, stone, and wine.
The ride begins and ends at the eBike Puglia base in Martina Franca; exact meeting details are provided on booking confirmation.
No—basic cycling balance and the ability to use pedal‑assist are sufficient; guides provide orientation on the bikes.
