Excursion by sea

40 kilometres of coast in the wildest part of Sardinia, sheer cliffs dotted with coves and beaches that are the real jewels of the Mediterranean. We will take you on an unforgettable trip to see: the cave of the doves, the inlets of Portu Cuau and the beaches of Cala Goloritzé, Punta "Ispuligi de nie" (Cala dei gabbiani and Cala Mariolu), to the discovery of undersea siphons inside the “Fico” cave, where the monk seal was last seen.

 

Hiking

 

We will walk along antique narrow mule paths, and up juniper tree ladders, to cross wild breathtaking landscapes, up needles and through arches dug into the chalk and impressive cliffs. This is what our Supramonte is about. Our expert guides will take you for a trip which may varyfrom 1 to 5 days in the different creeks of the Orosei gulf, staying overnight in sheep-folds or even sleeping on the shore. You will get a real overdose of nature which you will never forget, with the perfumes and colours of Selvaggio Blu, unforgettable for those who experienced them.

 

The Fico cave: to the discovery of an underground world! Information www.grottadelfico.it

 

This proposal will take you through the mysterious tunnels of an ancient land to hidden chasms to undersea caves in the splendid cliffs of Baunei, to discover a unique and fascinating world. Expert guides will lead you along underground waterways to the home of rare species and you will venture into caves of incredible beauty with unusual-shaped stalagmites and stalactites. The cave is situated 7 m above sea level, along the limestone cliffs of the gulf of Orosei. Safe gangways will allow you to walk easily over the fossil bed of an ancient river.

 

Free Climbing

 

Baunei is one of the most beautiful regions in Sardinia for climbers. It’s really a microcosm which can satisfy the most demanding climber, where it is possible to find anything you want, and mostly to climb during  any season and with any weather condition, even in summer, that is traditionally considered unfavourable to practising free-climbing, the climber will find the freshness he wants after a quiet morning at the seaside, in the Aguglia, symbol of climbing and the crowded ‘falesie’ of the Gallic village, the selective and dizzy walls of Punta Giradili.
