Itinerari lungo il Basento

Rediscover the soul of Lucania through six itineraries through the Basento gorges in search of stratifications of different domains and cultures, ancient popular traditions, evidence of a magical past and ancestral memories imprinted in the landscape. The Matera dei Sassi, the cente, the gullies, the May festival, ghost towns and small mountain settlements full of charm and mystery. Wild glimpses, lunar landscapes and walking itineraries in the most evocative historical centres.
The guide is completed by a study on Lucan cuisine and its archaic flavors to be enjoyed in a special food and wine itinerary connected to the major cultural, religious and citizen events of today’s Basilicata.
