Geotrekking: alla scoperta di Monte Sambuco

ASD ORI GREEN Monte Sambuco with its naturalistic guides and sports instructors will lead you through paths surrounded by greenery, to discover panoramic views, ruins of old fortified farms, and streams.

The naturalistic site is characterized by a high hilly landscape, Monte Sambuco, which with its 981 m s.l.m. represents one of the highest peaks of the Dauni Mountains and among the largest in Puglia, and with its dense and uniform forest cover it is an example of the ancient landscape of the Daunian Apennines.

There are several habitats present and well preserved. The area is rich in springs, including Pila del Ladro and Pila Sant’Onofrio. These are two characteristic fountains under the shade of poplars and maples, located a few hundred meters from each other. Furthermore, it will be possible to admire the majesty of the beech forest and the beauty of the “fabulous” hawthorn, which has been transformed from a shrub into a tree.
