Olive Oil Tour

The location is a natural park, with its numerous habitats, the ancient olive groves, the Trajan way, the archaeological sites, the historic farms and the underground oil mills, the blades, the rock settlements. By bike we dive into the olive grove and reach the ancient Via Traiana that connected Rome to Brindisi and that still today unites the territories of Fasano and Ostuni, full of interesting ideas that explain what was rural life. It is not a race of speed, on the contrary the group will have to keep itself compact and ride enthusiastically along a path rich in history. From the cultivation to the olive harvest through the different production methods depending on the purpose of use: from oil to high-quality oil telling stories of history and passion that have evolved over time without losing the direct link with the community. Small stop to visit a hypogeum mill with old mills and presses, a fortified farm, a modern mill and a millenary olive grove. At the end of the ride for everyone tasting of extra virgin olive oil. The activity will serve to illustrate and concretize the centrality of a product from the primordial phase of care of the territory of origin to the consumption of the finished product.
