Otranto e ritorno

From Masseria Uccio to Otranto and back
“Masseria Uccio” - Marina Serra – Tricase Porto – Castro Marina – Santa Cesarea Terme – Porto Badisco – Bauxite Pit – Otranto – Masseria Uccio

Difficulty: Medium: some significant climbs for length.
Suggestions: It is a rather demanding path created to visit Otranto and its surroundings. This path can be covered also by car. In August the seafront to Otranto is quite busy.
Path: Reaching Otranto from the Farm is very easy. Leaving “Masseria Uccio”, you reach the Sanctuary of Madonna di Fatima. From here continue to “Masseria of Tiggiano”, cross the small historical centre and go on to Torre Palane; after admiring the breathtaking view continue along the seafront to Otranto until you reach Marina Serra of Tricase. Past Tricase Porto continue to Castro Marina and Santa Cesarea Terme. After a few kilometres you will reach Otranto. Once you are in Otranto it will be possible to visit the Cathedral in the beautiful historical centre. Leaving Otranto to go back to the Farm you can stop along the seafront to admire a suggestive intense red bauxite pit.
Duration: 3 hours (non-stop)
