Road in very poor condition

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Unpaved surface (Komoot map wrong), extremely poor condition, endless potholes, piles of rubbish on the side (watch out for broken glass), sand in places.
Only suitable for MTBs.

The dilapidated bridge has probably been closed for some time. The fence is now overgrown with plants. To get back to the original path, you unfortunately have to make a dangerous maneuver across a highway. Or, of course, drive all the way back...

Stair of the Turks

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Scala dei Turchi is a sheer cliff that overlooks the crystalline sea making it a very suggestive place. The name derives from the Saracen pirates who, in 1500, were mistakenly called Turks. The cliff made of many steps helped the many pirates to climb up to plunder the towns.

Scala dei Turchi (Turks' Steps) Beach

Highlight • Beach

The rocks only just stick out of the sand.
With a little imagination you could imagine the look of the back of a group of white whales that you can walk along the beach.
