바우네이‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪8‬개의 산장 & 오두막집

It's pleasantly shady in here on a scorching hot day. If necessary, you can find shelter here in case of a change in the weather.

Ovile Us Piggius is an ancient sheepfold located in the Supramonte of Baunei. The Selvaggio Blu, one of Sardinia's most spectacular treks, passes through here. This place is an ideal base for those embarking on this extraordinary adventure.

Along this path you come across some cuiles, traditional sheepfolds with stone bases and wooden and branch structures. At this point, there is one of the best preserved. Shepherds have used these structures for generations, tending pigs, goats and oxen. Since the 1950s and 1960s, these sheepfolds have been progressively abandoned, without generational change, with rare exceptions.

Good evening, I would like to come and eat in this restaurant (I read that the owners provide this service). How can I contact them and understand if they are present?

The hut still stands (2024).

Ankle-high hiking boots are a must. Otherwise, it's a strenuous and demanding tour with (according to Komoot) up to 40% gradient.

Nearby you can find an old giant oak tree

"Sos cuiles," or "the sheepfolds" in Italian, represent the last testimonies of pastoral life on the remote hills of Supramonte. Until the 1960s, the shepherds from Urzulei, Baunei, Dorgali, Oliena and Orgosolo had developed a system of economic exploitation based on the breeding of goats and pigs, challenging the extreme and wild conditions of Sardinia which made any other form of survival. The Cuile Ziu Tattanu is one of these shelters, restored in 2012 to bring it back to its original Sardinian form. Today it serves as a mountain lodge with a fire pit. It is definitely possible to sleep in it.
