For those who want to immerse themselves in pristine Sardinia, we recommend several nature trails to do in the city or around Cagliari.
The Sella del Diavolo is one of the favorite destinations for excursions a few steps from the Cagliari’s center, ideal for easy trekking suitable for everyone. From the summit you can also admire the Molentargius Park, one of the richest sites of bird species in the whole of Sardinia, with over 300 different species of birds and the main place for the nesting of pink flamingos.
A few steps from Cagliari, there are the Saline Conti Vecchi (enhanced by the FAI - Fondo Ambiente Italiano), a vast natural site, still active, that tells the story of the salt industry.
For lovers of trekking, the Mining Trail of Santa Barbara is a historical, cultural and religious itinerary in the Historical Environmental Geominerary Park of Sardinia along the ancient mining paths between sea, mountains, mines.
Known as "Island in the Island", the Giara Park in Gesturi stands out for its unique morphological characteristics. Among the mammals that populate it, the most famous is the Cavallino della Giara, a species introduced into the island during the Nuragic or Punic period.
