More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You start on the ridge above the Adriatic with wind that seems to push you forward, the sea spread to the east and terraced hills to the west. An e‑bike hums beneath you; a backpack of local salumi, cheese, jam and a small bottle of wine sits ready for a mid-ride picnic. The panoramic road along Monte San Bartolo gives frequent pullouts where cliffs, village roofs, and sudden sea views demand a stop.
