Kartodromo della Murgia

At the foot of the Murge plateau, in Cassano delle Murge in the province of Bari, the Kartodromo della Murgia runs an outdoor track on the famous Bari Murge. The site sits in a rural setting typical of the Murge: ancient olive groves, historic masserie, oak woods and gravine canyons. It is used by Apulians from the Bari Murge for outings with friends and by motorsport enthusiasts from the Ionian-Adriatic area.

In its outdoor format, the track offers a layout suited to adult and experienced drivers, in the picturesque setting of the Murge (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, corporate events and regional championships from the Bari area.

Cassano delle Murge is thirty minutes from Bari, thirty minutes from Altamura and one hour from Matera. The region offers plenty more to see: Altamura (one of the Borghi più Belli d'Italia, the capital of DOP bread), the Castellaneta gravine, Castel del Monte UNESCO (Frederick II) thirty minutes away, Alberobello and the trulli UNESCO forty-five minutes away, Matera and the Sassi UNESCO one hour away, or a side trip to Polignano a Mare or the Castellana Caves. Karting in Cassano delle Murge is a sport option for Apulians from the Bari Murge and enthusiasts staying between Bari, Matera UNESCO and the Trulli UNESCO.
