The bike ride that took me to Torcito Park was born from a desire to discover this corner of paradise I'd heard so much about. Upon arriving, I found an enchanting park, immersed in nature, with historic farmhouses and other valuable structures. Scenic trails and picnic areas make it the perfect place for a relaxing break.

Fortified Masseria of Torcito

Highlight • Historical Site

Fortified by the Spaniards at the beginning of the 16th century due to the danger of Turkish attacks, the Masseria di Torcito rests on a slight plateau and is not far from the sea. Today it is in the municipal area of Cannole (LE) and despite having been partially destroyed and vandalized, it retains great charm.
