Sant’Elia WWF Oasis
This post is also available in: Italiano (Italian)
This oasis extends over a hilly area at about 1.312 ft above sea level, on the southern side of the eastern Murge territory. From there, visitors can actually see the Gulf of Taranto and the Pollino Massif.
The oasis is almost completely covered by Caracciolo wood, which originates in Mottola and reaches Martina Franca; it includes a “masseria” (a “big farm”) with several residential areas and 17 “trulli” (traditional Apulian dry stone huts with a conical roof) allegedly dating back to the XVII century. Behind the “trulli” there are some “jazzi” (animal enclosures made with dry stone).
The oasis regularly organizes many tasting events of organic and fair-trade products
