Take a break from the heat and chaos with a relaxing and wellness experience among the Apulian oaks: a guided forest swimming walk in the evocative Ciuchino Birichino Forest, near Ostuni. Here, nature takes centre stage, and every step invites you to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with the environment.

You'll walk along cool, shady paths to discover the wild plants and animals that inhabit the forest. You'll get a close-up look at wild orchids, the little gems of the undergrowth, and learn to recognise the tracks of the local fauna, discovering the curiosities and “secrets” of a still-intact ecosystem.

Along the way, you'll also have a special encounter with some authentic symbols of the Apulian tradition: the Murge horses and the friendly donkeys, curious and sweet walking companions that make the experience even more memorable.

Led by qualified instructors, the excursion combines nature, knowledge, and emotion in total safety. It's a sensory experience designed to help you rediscover your balance: listen to the sounds of the forest, breathe in the fresh, regenerating air, and enjoy the majestic shade of the oaks, while your gaze opens up to an authentic Apulian rural landscape.
