Pulo of Altamura

Highlight • Canyon

The Pulo di Altamura is a sinkhole of karst origin of the bowl type, created by the channeling of rainwater right at this point.
This created a more or less circular depression with a diameter of about 500 m. with a maximum depth of 75 meters. Along the walls, which are very steep in some points, caves and ravines have been created which indicate the different levels of excavation by the waters. These caves represent a real archaeological heritage because they were inhabited since the earliest ages of prehistory.
The route includes an unpaved stretch of about 1 km that can also be easily covered by racing bike.
