Il percorso:

> Leaving from ALIMINI to MARTANO, whose centre is considered the capital of Greece. The Mother Church, the church of the Madonnella, the church of the Rosario, Palazzo Stampecchia and the castle are worth a visit.

> Second leg, CALIMERA, the youngest Greek town whose public park holds the attic stele dating back to the 6th century; continuing to MARTIGNANO, where the parish church, the chapel of the Madonna del Rosario and the church of S. Francesco can be visited; and to STERNATIA, with a visit to the famous mother church

> Continuing to SOLETO, which almost extends to the centre of the ancient Iapigia. The monumental bell tower, the church of S. Nicola, the convent of the Poor Clare order and the church of S. Stefano are worth visiting. Stop off for lunch in a typical restaurant.

> In the afternoon there is a visit to ZOLLINO, with the church of S. Anna, the church of SS. Pietro and Paolo, the hypogeum oil mill, the Menhir of the station and the Menhir Sant’Anna; to CORIGLIANO, with a visit to the old town centre with the court houses and the noblemen's buildings, the castle, the church of S. Nicola and the Angels Gate; to CASTRIGNANO with its Byzantine crypt, the medieval castle, the chapel of S. Vito and S. Rocco.

> Return to ALIMINI.
