What makes Murgia Materana Park Tour a unique experience ?
The vast Murgico plateau facing the Sassi of Matera constitutes the “Regional Park of the Rupestrian Churches of Matera” since 2007 also declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco. It is a large rocky hilly area marked by deep karst fissures called: “Gravine”.
During this historical-naturalistic walk, the visitor will be able to walk through the narration of the guide the path of man, starting from the Paleolithic settlements, to the entrenched Neolithic villages of “Murgia Timone”, from the pastoral communities of the Middle Ages to the rock settlements of the hermit communities Greek-Byzantine. Along a dirt path you proceed along the deep canyon of the ravine. Finally we reach the so-called belvedere to admire the panorama of the Sassi which, illuminated by a myriad of suggestive lights, will offer the visitor the perception of having the starry sky under the feet of an upside-down galaxy ………!
