Overview

This trekking on foot, with donkeys carrying your stuff, offers you in the middle of unspoiled nature, the most authentic Sardinia: forests of green oaks, thick Mediterranean vegetation, rivers and sources of pure water among the highest mountains from Sardinia.

We meet wild boars, deer and the typical Sardinian fauna. With a little luck, we will see in the distance mouflons, horses and birds of prey. It will also be an opportunity to get in touch with shepherds and the inhabitants of these small villages.

The Sardinian donkey is patient, indefatigable, it is the animal of the shepherds par excellence and perfectly adapted to our trekking for the transport of luggage. In general, we will have a donkey for two.
