Trekking in Sardinia: 3 itineraries not to be missed

Trekking in Sardinia: 3 itineraries not to be missed

Published on 4 October 2021 On Experience, Infos

For lovers of long walks, Sardinia offers interesting solutions. Among the nature, art, and history, there are many routes that you can take, even depending on your physical level. For friends, enthusiasts, and families, Orroli is the right place to stay for your trekking in Sardinia, as a reference point to discover the whole island.

WHAT IS TREKKING AND WHY PRACTICE IT IN SARDINIA

Trekking is the perfect discipline for any age. Declined in several nuances, it is a motor activity to be carried out outdoors, to immerse yourself in nature, listen to the fauna, and escape from the chaos of everyday life. Simple paths, more complex itineraries, routes alone, associations, and groups.. trekking is really for everyone.

Today, following the long period of restrictions caused by COVID-19, there are many people who are approaching this activity, for the desire to spend time outdoors and devote themselves to cultivate new passions, outside the four walls of the house.

Practice trekking is very simple, but there are some tips to keep in mind:

  • Shoes are important: in trekking…you walk! Don’t forget to use the right shoes, even to take dirt paths;
  • Little but useful: a light but well equipped backpack is essential. Water, sunscreen, some sugar, and a first aid kit are all you need;
  • Inform yourself about your itinerary: whether you choose an official route or not, study what you will find on the way. On the one hand, for your safety and, on the other hand, to make sure you enjoy all the beauty that will surround you along the way.

History, art, and nature are just some of the aspects that make Sardinia the ideal place to go trekking. The island offers its visitors every kind of itinerary, from the simplest to the most complex. Those who choose to go trekking in Sardinia have the opportunity not only to cultivate their passion and stay in touch with nature. In fact, there are many paths that allow you to meet along the way historical finds, even large, that you can only discover in Sardinia.

TREKKING IN SARDINIA: THE WILD BLUE

Whoever thinks of Sardinia thinks of the sea, fun, and comfortable dream vacations. The island is this, but also much more, making itself available to all those who love nature. The most famous trekking route in Sardinia is the Selvaggio Blu, a 7-day journey in which 40 km of rock are crossed, walking from Pedra Longa to Cala Sisine.

Selvaggio Blu is known at the European level precisely because of its difficulty, with a 360° contact with nature. Here, the hiker will not find refreshment points, but walls to climb, routes to take, and a landscape rich in flora and fauna, completely surprising.

The Selvaggio Blu is not a path for everyone, and whoever in the future would like to undertake this path can prepare themselves with the many other itineraries that Sardinia offers for trekking, from north to south.

TREKKING TO THE ARCHEOLOGICAL AND BOTANICAL PARK DE SU MOTTI

Another place to discover during your trekking itineraries in Sardinia is the Archaeological and Botanical Park de su Motti, which is located a few kilometers from Orroli and easily reachable on foot. This place is a real open-air museum, where you can embrace history and nature. With its paths of even a few kilometers, it is perfect for those who are just approaching the trekking and looking for a vacation away from the daily chaos.

Among the finds and the most enchanting places you can access thanks to this itinerary we find:

  • The nuraghe “Su Motti” that acts as a lookout to the town’s inhabited center.
  • Mount Pitziogu, which is a volcano no longer active whose natural remains enrich the park;
  • The hypogeum necropolis composed of about 15 domus de Janas, ancient tombs dug into the rock.

With just one trekking route, it is possible to walk through history, coming into contact with hundreds of thousands of years of life. To close the itinerary with a jump to the Bronze Age, the right place is the Nuraghe Arrubiu, a unique place of its kind.

THE HEELS OF OGLIASTRA: TREKKING IN SECRET SARDINIA

Among the most evocative itineraries that Sardinia offers, we cannot but mention the Tacchi di Ogliastra, located just over an hour’s drive from Orroli. Here, every path leads to a timeless journey, capable of bringing the past back to life. In addition to the domus de Janas, which we also find here, it is possible to discover:

  • S’Ilixi ‘e Canali, a holm oak of 18 meters is reachable through the “Ermolinus path”;
  • The path dedicated to the famous Sardinian artist Maria Lai;
  • The cuiles, the ancient shelters of the shepherds.

Finally, thanks to the Trenino Verde, it is possible to move quickly between various areas of the territory, being able to observe more nuances without neglecting the attention to the history and magic of these wonderful places.

The trekking routes in Sardinia are opportunities to meet history, real challenges for the most experienced, and complete journey into the most ancient culture of this wonderful island.
