Parco naturale regionale Terra delle Gravine

The Terra delle Gravine Regional Nature Park extends through deep limestone canyons with vertical walls, creating corridors of Mediterranean vegetation in southern Italy.

The regional administration of Puglia established this protected area in 2005 to preserve the geological formations and natural ecosystems of the Taranto province.

Local communities maintain traditional agricultural practices within designated areas of the park, producing regional specialties like olives, wine, and seasonal vegetables.

The park administration provides guided tours, hiking trails, and bicycle rentals through multiple entry points, with detailed maps available at information centers.

The park contains numerous ravines formed by water erosion over millions of years, creating natural habitats for rare bird species and Mediterranean flora.
