Circuito karting - Manfredonia

On the southern Gargano coast, in Manfredonia in the province of Foggia in Apulia, the Circuito Karting Manfredonia runs an outdoor track on the southern side of the Gargano Promontory. The site sits in a coastal setting typical of the southern Gargano: wooded hills, ancient olive groves, the Adriatic Sea and views over the Gulf of Manfredonia. It is used by Foggia coastal locals for outings with friends and by Gargano holiday-makers (Vieste, Peschici, Pugnochiuso, Foresta Umbra).

In its outdoor format, the track offers a layout suited to adult and experienced drivers, in the Gargano coastal setting (the site is sport-oriented and aimed at adult drivers). Several engine sizes are available, with higher-powered karts for regulars used to timed sessions. Conditions follow the Apulian Mediterranean climate: drier and faster in summer, sometimes windy. The site hosts enthusiast sessions, motorsport-focused stag and hen groups and corporate events.

Manfredonia is thirty minutes from Foggia, thirty minutes from Vieste and one hour from Termoli. The region offers plenty more to see: the historic centre of Manfredonia and the Swabian Castle, the Cathedral of Manfredonia, Siponto (a Palaeo-Christian archaeological site), the Gargano Promontory (Vieste and its famous Pizzomunno sea stacks, Peschici, Pugnochiuso, Foresta Umbra), Monte Sant'Angelo (Sanctuary of Saint Michael Archangel UNESCO), the Tremiti Islands reachable from Vieste or Termoli, or a side trip to Lucera and the Frederician fortress or the salt pans of Margherita di Savoia. Karting in Manfredonia is a sport option for Gargano Apulian locals and Promontory holiday-makers.
