Overview
Beautiful North to South tour through the wilderness East of the island linking some of the prettiest beaches and crossing the main mountain ranges: Limbara, Goceano, Supramonte and the Gennargentu, the peak of the island. We’ll ride the whole island from the very North to the South. You’ll discover so many different landscapes, traditions, foods and languages, these are just some of the reasons why Sardinia is considered its own a continent.

DAY 1AccommodationHotel Parco degli Ulivi |
Arrival dayWe meet at the hotel, together with the group who started The Mediterrenean Ride in Corsica, meeting in front of a good glass of Vermentino di Gallura DOCG to talk about the week ahead. |
DAY 2ActivityCyclingAccomodationHotel LibertyDistance 105kmClimb 2000mt |
From Arzachena to PattadaWe leave the glamour of the Costa Smeralda to get to Goceano Mountains. The vineyards of Arzachena give way to forests of cork along the ascent to the granite massif of Limbara, which we leave on an exciting descent on the Coghinas lake, here we prepare to challenge the Goceano range, where the village of Pattada awaits us. |
DAY 3ActivityCyclingAccomodationHotel Il QuercetoDistance 85kmClimb 1000mt |
From Pattada to DorgaliWe get from Goceano to the Supramonte, passing through Barbagia of Nuoro. The typical cork oak forests of Buddusò together with the mountain pastures of Bitti makes this landscape unique. The Cedrino valley, at the foot of majestic Supramonte, tells us about old stories and ancestral traditions. |
DAY 4ActivityCyclingAccommodationHotel SeleneDistance 95kmClimb 1900mt |
From Dorgali to LanuseiDorgali is located right at the beginning of the climb to Genna Silana, along an awesome route: the legendary SS125! It is one of the most beautiful roads of Sardinia, 40 exciting kilometers through pure nature, reaching 1000mt a.s.l. at Passo Genna Silana, from where we take a long and beautiful descent to Tortolì. From here we continue to climb to the heart of Ogliastra. |
DAY 5ActivityCyclingAccommodationHotel Omu AxiuDistance 90kmClimb 2000mt |
From Lanusei to OrroliToday is the King of the mountain! We cross the heart of Ogliastra surrounded by the beauty of this wild nature, here the action of erosion of the river and its tributaries have carved deep valleys creating bizarre rock formations, known as "Tacchi", plateaus rising on high walls of white limestone, which make unique landscapes in this beautiful corner of Sardinia. The canyon that closes the lake Flumendosa anticipates the arrival to the plateau of Orroli, a town symbol of longevity in Sardinia. |
DAY 6ActivityCyclingAccommodationHotel Su SergentiDistance 90kmClimb 750mt |
From Orroli to VillasimiusAfter a short stretch on the plateau, dominated by the wonderful megalithic complex of Nuraghe Arrubiu, we go down into the valley of the Flumendosa river ending by the sea in Muravera. The lagoons inhabited by pink flamingos and rare birds, lines the countryside and some of the most generous citrus groves of Sardinia, give way to the charm of the coast and the fabulous beaches of the Marine Park of Capo Carbonara in Villasimius: a real paradise of white sandy beaches and emerald water! |
DAY 7ActivityCyclingAccommodationHotel ItaliaDistance 55kmClimb 700mt |
From Villasimius to CagliariThe route from Villasimius to Cagliari is a fun itinerary of continuous up and down in an impressive succession of cliffs and beaches, granite hills and ancient Spanish towers. It will be really difficult to resist the temptation to take a dip in one of the many beaches and crystal water: Porto Sa Ruxi, Solanas, Torre delle Stelle, Geremeas, Mari Pintau, Cala Regina and finally the Poetto, where we take a nice cycling path along the beach until Cagliari port. - To those ending the trip here there is still a nice evening in Cagliari, to stroll through the lively streets of the old town and taste the local specialties in one of the typical Trattorias of the Marina quarter. - For those continuing The Mediterranean Ride in Sicily, we’ll spend the night on the ferry to Palermo. |
DAY 8Departure |
Arrivederci! (Or Benvenuti in Sicily!)For those leaving we’ll organise a shuttle to Cagliari airport. |
