エステルツィーリ/エステルツィーリのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

After crossing the Sa Brecca, turn left and enjoy the view

Very nice rest area in the middle of the forest. There is also a hut if you are unlucky with the weather 😬. When we were there it was open, I can't say if it is always like that.

This is the Cascata di Su Stampu 'e Su Turrunu waterfall.

On the hike through the beautiful area you have the opportunity to take a break.

6 euros entrance fee, which is really worth it. Opening times: Only with a guided tour, approx. 45 minutes - at the following times: 10:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m., 4:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m https://www.escursionisadali.it/ There are 5 rooms to visit. In contrast to the well-known grottos, the lighting is more temporary and the paths are more adventurous. The following legend surrounds the grotto: The cave is called “Is Janas”, which is a Sardinian name for “fairies”. According to a legend, three fairies lived in this cave. The fairies loved food and enjoyed cooking. This is also how you cook during Lent. A priest surprised the fairies while they were eating and was hanged by them (broken stalagtite in the first room). As punishment, God turned the fairies into three stalgmites (room 2). In the fourth room the skeleton of a "Prolagus Sardus" was discovered as well as ceramic shards from the Neolithic period (3000 BC) which can be viewed in the Museum of Caglari. Geological and historical information: The cave dates back 5 million years and was discovered in the 19th century. The cave is approx. 240 meters long and has a constant temperature of 12° and a humidity of 99 - 100%. The colors of the cave are: red (iron oxide and clay), gray (manganese) and black (guano - bat excrement).

By the way, the waterfall is called "Piscina 'e Licona" - it is a very mystical, idyllic place. You can jump into the pool for a little refreshment ;-)

In autumn there is only a thin waterfall so that you can take a shower ;-) I wouldn't stand under the pictures in spring. Exciting to see the waterfall falling through a hole

A bit difficult to get to, but very idyllic! Best from the northern side of the valley. Good shoes are strongly recommended!
