Sardinia Fascinating & Bewitching
 To
discover Sardinia away from the tourist’ routes means cycling
through unspoilt landscapes, experiencing the turquoise
blue sea and wonderful beaches, following the traces
of the Nuragher and the Phoenicians; watching
the last wild horses, and enjoying the culinary secrets
of Sardinian cuisine. These are the impressions we
want to offer you on this bike tour
through South Sardinia.
The route is flat and hilly with one longer ascent.
Mostly on asphalted side roads, short passages on gravel roads. Magnificent
descents and panorama passes are part of an unforgettable experience.
