나라부이아/나볼리아 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

A very funny single track maintained by ASD Montiferru MTB. Recommended for all types of MTB.

There are two ways to get there. One upper and one lower path.

Great view

A thin, curved strip of very fine quartz grains, almost two kilometres long, separates the turquoise sea from the Sa Salina Manna pond. It is the splendid beach of Putzu Idu, called ‘cala Saline’ and sheltered from the mistral, which extends north of the magnificent s’Arena Scoada and reaches the beach of Mandriola. The quartz sand is white and soft. The waters offer, with the changing light, suggestive shades from green to blue. The sandy seabed is shallow for dozens of metres.

The Torre di Capo Mannu stands on a rocky promontory, offering a spectacular view of the sea and the surrounding coast. Built in the 16th century as part of the defense system against pirate raids, it is surrounded by a landscape characterized by cliffs, crystal clear waters and typical Mediterranean vegetation.

Path between Santa Caterina di Pittinuri (south of the Rau Santa Caterina river) to the Belvedere viewpoint is no longer accessible Part 1. The hiking trail between Santa Caterina di Pittinuri and the Belvedere viewpoint is no longer usable due to nature conservation measures. The original trails are partially overgrown and the route has shifted to private property.

  Part 2. We wanted to climb the southern section of the coast from the Rau Santa Caterina river, but soon realised that the beach had been completely covered with round stones due to coastal protection measures. The climb was originally possible via a path, but later it was clearly marked as private. With great effort we were able to get onto the old, heavily overgrown thorn bushes off the path and continue upwards. There we were finally confronted with several barrier fences running across the path, weighted down with stones to keep them on the ground. This was a clear sign that this natural area is being protected. We accept that it is important to preserve sensitive natural areas, even if this means that we are denied the breathtaking views of the bay. More impressions of this section can be found in the attached pictures.
