Unfortunately, the waterfalls can only be admired in spring; in autumn, everything here is dry and more of a mosquito paradise. Otherwise, however, it's beautiful!

Punta Gjucantinu is the second highest peak of Mount Limbara. You can reach it easily with a path and a short climb. From the top, the view is breathtaking: you have a view that extends from the Gulf of Asinara to the Gennargentu chain. A majestic and fascinating panorama.

In the Vallicciola park on Mount Limbara, the most photographed trees are the magnificent sequoias. Near the Hotel Vallicciola, a clean path immerses itself in a forest of sequoias mixed with a few pines. The sequoias of Vallicciola, an enchanting mountain village on the Limbara, are monumental trees, planted at the beginning of the last century, which reach almost 40 meters in height.

beautiful shady park to visit even with children

On Via Giommaria Angioj, the Parco delle Rimembranze was created in honor of the soldiers of Tempio Pausania who fought and fell during the First World War. Originally each tree was dedicated to a fallen soldier, whose name was engraved on a special plaque. These were subsequently detached from the oaks and over the years the memory of the correspondence with the names of the fallen soldiers was lost. Only some relatives of those who lost their lives in combat keep the memory of the plant dedicated to their relative. Furthermore, in the years following the inauguration of the park, the deaths of other soldiers were noted and reported, so the total number of victims was higher than that of the trees. Since it is impossible to reconstruct the original combination with the names of the soldiers who disappeared during the war, the municipal administration, in order to nevertheless preserve the commemorative character of the park, dedicates its trees, ideally to the fighters who were born in Tempio and who perished during the First World War. It is also important to remember that the "Sassari" Brigade was formed on March 1, 1915 in Tempio Pausania (SS) and in Sinnai (CA) with two regiments, the 151st and 152nd Infantry Regiments, composed entirely of Sardinians, heir to the traditions of the Terçio de Cerdena (of the Aragonese-Spanish period) and the Regiment of Sardinia (Savoy period). At the end of January 1915, the order for the formation was issued by the Chief of Staff of the Army of the Sassari Brigade, which was formed in Cagliari, with military service covering all the municipalities of the province of Nuoro.

This impressive mountain range is the highest in the region and offers an unmistakable panorama with its two striking granite peaks, Punta sa Berritta and Punta Balistreri. The rugged peaks contrast with the densely forested slopes, which form a green band around the bare peaks with chestnuts, pedunculate oaks, pines, firs and firs. As soon as you reach the summit and look as far as Corsica and the island of Asinara under clear skies, you will understand why so many hikers rave about this place. Your starting point could be the hiking car park below the summit, where the small Madonna della Neve chapel rises from granite rocks. From here you have six different trekking routes available. But maybe you would like to start the adventure in the town of Vallicciola and set off on a hike into the mountain range. Such a circular tour takes between two and a half and four hours, depending on the route. You should be alert on the way, because wild boars roam this area. It is advisable to avoid the forest and take to the road, especially at dusk. Would you like to take a break? Then find a place near the church where you can enjoy the peace and quiet and the view. And when you finally drive along the winding road that takes you into the mountains, you will find that the journey is an adventure in itself. The best time to tour the Monte Limbara mountain range is between May and October. But even in winter, the snow-covered peak offers a charming sight. You need to be sure-footed on your hike, because nature shows its wild side here. But that is precisely what makes this region so charming. So, lace up your hiking boots and set off on a journey of discovery!

Beautiful waterfalls can be seen here!

The Monte Limbara is a mountain chain that you can hike through a wonderful circular tour. We did a 10km loop hike and it was totally worth it. You can take a wonderful break at the church. The drive up along the serpentines is an experience in itself and not without it.
