Excursions – Trekking
The Sinis peninsula, characterised by an unspoilt and wild nature, preserves outstanding landscapes of undoubtable fascination and beauty.
Crystal-clear sea with multiple shades of blue, inviting aromas of lentisk and wild rosemary, coastal towers with spectacular views: a refreshing walk which creates a precious alliance between the walker and the surrounding environment.
Hippo-trekking – Horse-riding
Sardinia and horses are connected by a century-old tradition. Horses always have been representing a lead role in Sardinian people life and culture.
For this reason, the equestrian tourism is widely practised on the beach, on the pinewood, on the mountain.
In the area of Bosa, Scano Montiferro, Ghilarza, Abbasanta, Bonarcado, Paulilatino, San Vero Milis, Putzu Idu, Siamaggiore, Santa Giusta e Arborea, there are equestrian centres and riding stables for the horse-riding lovers.
Biking
Practicing responsible biking tourism means respecting and being careful with environment and with health. Kilometres of coastal roads for those who love riding suspended above the sea, or following inner paths to enjoy the natural beauty of the countryside and discover the charm of a timeless island.
Motorbike
Local motor clubs organise races and national and international rallies on the roads of this part of Sardinia.
At disposal of motors and speed lovers: the motocross track “Le Dune” in Riola Sardo – 1.650 metres of sandy track (highly technical racetrack) - Motorschool Riola - Riola Sardo (Or)
Cart track and Supermotard track: Tramatza - Arborea - Abbasanta
Climbing
To the climbing lovers we recommend the rocky limestone cliffs of Monte Arci and of Cornus in Santa Caterina di Pittinurri.
Birdwatching
A surface of 6.000 hectares of ponds attracts birdwatching lovers to observe the uncommon swamphen, the red heron and the mallard; among the water birds the ever-present pink flamingo which inhabits the lagoons from October to May, eating little crustaceans which live in the ponds.
