Visite turistiche

One of the most beautiful coves in the whole Mediterranean, gem of Ogliastra - Cala Goloritzè. Cala Goloritzè was declared a "natural monument" by the Sardinia Region in 1993, and then named "Italian National Monument" in 1995. Hiking route to be booked in advance (seasonal) Distance 3,6 km. Ascent 513m. 1,5 hour to go and 2 to come back. My personal advice: start hiking early morning, take good trekking shoes, water (2L per person), snacks and don't forget your sunblock ;).
