From the starting point in via del Porto in Savelletri, you need to take via Baracca on the left, walking all the way to the end until turning right onto via Accademia Navale, keeping left for approximately 200 m before taking Contrada Masciola to the left.

Continue along Contrada Masciola for 700 m and then take a left onto the Egnatia municipal road and carry on along its extension (the San Domenico municipal road). Continue along this road for 5 km until you reach the junction, where you’ll leave the San Domenico municipal road and turn right onto a narrower road.
Along this stretch of road, you can enjoy the characteristic views of the area: vast expanses of centuries-old olive trees (sometimes even thousands of years old), which are the fruit of years of hard work by generations of farmers who have expertly left behind a mark of all their tireless efforts. Continue for approximately 900 m and turn left. Go straight for another 700 m and then turn left onto via del Procaccio. After 300 m, turn right and then continue until you reach the intersection with the SP 90. Turn right onto SP 90 and then follow this road until the junction where you need to take via Eroi del Mare to the left. This will take you along the coastal road of Torre Canne up until the small harbour, which is also the end point for this leg of the journey.
