You push off from Martina Franca and the narrow streets open to limestone fields, low dry-stone walls daring you to keep a straight line. The route threads past cone-roofed trulli—whitewashed stone huts with circular plans—and into an agricultural landscape shaped by centuries of sheep, olive, and grape cultivation.
