Excellent place to rest after the climb from Flumini Maggiore, before going downhill and partially on gravel among the cork trees

A pleasant, scenic walk along the harbor and the calm waters of the lagoon. From here, you can admire the sunset over the gulf, watch the fishing boats return, or simply enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of the seaside village.

Nuxis is a small village inhabited since prehistoric times and rich in cultural layers. Among its attractions are the Church of San Pietro, built in 1853, and the Byzantine country church of Sant’Elia di Tattinu. The town of Nuxis is characterized by a vibrant use of mural art: several contemporary murals decorate walls and facades, depicting scenes from local life, portraits of residents, and moments of collective memory. The village has several accommodations, as well as markets and restaurants where you can refresh yourself and stock up on supplies.

According to legend, the Acquafredda Castle was built by the Gherardesca family, Counts of Donoratico, when they acquired southeastern Sardinia. In fact, in 1257, the fortress came into the possession of Ugolino of Donoratico, lord of the Cagliarani territory, immortalized by Dante in Canto 23 of the Inferno. However, the castle is older, as it is already mentioned in a papal bull of 1215. After Ugolino's death (1288), it passed into the possession of Pisa, then to the Aragonese (1324), and subsequently to several feudal lords until it was redeemed by Victor Amadeus III (1785). From the top of a mountain, the castle dominates the territory of Siliqua, four kilometers away. Climbing its slopes, the view sweeps from the green valley of the Cixerri to Cagliari, from the Marmilla to the Iglesias area. At dawn and dusk, their shadows extend across the valley.

I recommend the Sant Antioco-Calasetta trek, walking all along the coast and passing through Cussorgia, 24 km round trip, an experience not to be missed!!

Small town in Sulcis-Iglesiente. The mural in the photo depicts the town's inhabitants.

Drinking water, shade and tourist sign (with associated mural) about the Palabanda revolt

Newly built (06/2025), the facade that looks directly onto the street looks more like a Pokemon (Moltres) than a hawk or any other bird it should represent!
