About Alta Murgia National Park
TheMurgiais a karstic plateau in Italy that extends across the border between Apulia andBasilicata, and the Alta Murgia National Park is located in the south-west of Apulia region. It is a great place for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts, but also for those who are interested in history. Indeed, here people can re-live a medieval atmosphere, thanks to the presence of castles dating back to the period of Norman-Swabian domination, such as the majestic Castel del Monte, and they can travel with their imagination even further back in time, to discover the life of primitive men and dinosaurs. The plateau has, in fact, numerous traces of the presence of man since prehistory, such as cave paintings, dolmens, skeletons, but also the footprints of great reptiles near Altamura.
