Castelsardo - Sardinia from a picture book In the northwest of the island of Sardinia, Castelsardo sits high above the coast - a town straight out of a picture book. It envelops its visitors with all its charm, supported by old fortress walls and colorful houses. Castelsardo is part of the association of the most beautiful places in Italy, I borghi più belli d'Italia - and not without reason!

Roccia dell'Elefante / Elephant Rock (Trachyte Rock) Unique rock formation resembling a sitting elephant with ancient graves. The Roccia dell'Elefante is located east of Castelsardo on a side road. It is a trachyte rock that has been shaped into an elephant by erosion.

Great stopping point. You can continue driving down the forbidden road though

Compared to the pretty historic center of Castelsardo, this square somehow seems too modern and cool. But if you want to go up to the old town, there is almost no way around it.

Beautiful even in November

The Abbacurrente tower represents an element of the complex of fortified structures which, from the early Middle Ages to the mid-19th century, performed the function of defence, sighting and communication along the Sardinian coast. Located on the edge of the sea, on a rocky protrusion at the left end of the long Platamona beach, the tower mainly had a signaling purpose. Due to its small size, it could only accommodate a small garrison. Its strategic location allowed visual contact with the towers of Isola Piana, Trabucado and, on clear days, also with that of Isola Rossa.
