This itinerary winds through Bosco Quarto. The first objective, the Agriturismo S. Maria in Bosco Quarto, lies about 20 kilometres outside Manfredonia, taking the provincial road 57 in the direction of Foresta Umbra. Once you have reached the state road 272, turn right and drive another 3 kilometres to reach the Agriturismo. You will find a dirt track, with a splendid view over the Basilica and the castle of San Michele, after which you will enter the wood and later return onto the asphalt road for Carpino–Cagnano. Take the turning for Carpino on the provincial road 50 bis; shortly after kilometre 17, take the downhill dirt road that leads you to the wood, signposted for Valle Ragusa.
Itinerary by off-road vehicle, only practicable when accompanied by an expert guide specialised in 4x4s and the local area, and, in any case, conceived for no more than five off-road vehicles. It is important to drive at low speeds, always giving way to other itinerary users, and pulling in and turning off the engine in the vicinity of horses and mountain bikes. It is severely forbidden to cross ploughed or cultivated fields. Fires may only be lit in designated areas.
