Basilicata: Trekking in the Candela Gorges and Monte Coppolo｜Italy

Enjoy an authentic experience in the wildest nature of Basilicata with a guided trekking trip to the Candela Gorges, at the foot of Monte Coppolo, within the region's first recognized Wilderness Area.
The hike starts from the beautiful village of Rotondella, known as the "Balcony of the Ionian Sea" for its panoramic position overlooking the Gulf of Taranto. From here, you will begin a pleasant walk along trails immersed in the Mediterranean vegetation, crossing natural gorges, forests, and unspoiled areas where the silence is broken only by the sounds of nature.
Along the route, an environmental guide will accompany you to discover the geology of the area, the local flora and fauna, and the history of this still little-known corner of Basilicata.
From the viewpoints, you can admire a unique landscape that stretches from the Ionian Sea to the Calanchi Lucani, up to the peaks of the Pollino National Park, offering perfect views for photography lovers.
Thanks to the simple route and the limited elevation gain, this experience is ideal for families, couples, groups of friends, and for those who want to try trekking while experiencing an authentic Basilicata far from the more touristy routes
