WHY THIS HIKE

Sella del Diavolo over Cagliari

A Cagliari, stando a pochi passi dal centro città tra ginepri, lentischi e piante aromatiche sarà possibile fare delle stupende escursioni immersi nella natura e ammirare la città da un punto panoramico unico. Vi porteremo sul promontorio simbolo della città da dove ammirare l’immensità della spiaggia del Poetto e del parco regionale di Molentargius. L’ escursione sulla sella del diavolo è un percorso naturalistico di circa 4 km in grado di farti ammirare dall’ alto l’intero golfo di Cagliari. Questo itinerario vanta non solo panorami mozzafiato ma anche elementi archeologici e storici riservando infine anche elementi di grande interesse naturalistico. Immersi nei profumi e negli aromi della macchia mediterranea arriviamo alla cima dove si trovano le rovine del tempio di Astarte, le rovine della torre di Sant’ Elia è un fortino della Seconda guerra mondiale e di una cisterna punica e una cisterna di epoca romana.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Nicola, an environmental hiking guide, and I've been out in the Sardinian mountains for over 30 years. I'm passionate about traditions, about plants and about everything our ancestors handed down: in Sardinia that's an endless subject, and nearly all of it sits along the trail rather than in books. I like to really live the place I'm walking on, not cross it. That's why I'm constantly exploring remote corners of my island, sparsely inhabited areas full of secrets, which leave anyone who visits with memories that don't fade. Walk with me and you'll go where there's nobody. 🥾 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
