A small-group guided trek through Gorropu Canyon with off-road pickup from Orosei, steep rocky scrambling, and expert commentary.

“My family and I had such a wonderful time hiking Gorropu canyon with Sergio. I wasn't sure how my 6 and 9 year old would do on a long hike, but they hardly noticed the distance because Sergio made it so fun. He set a perfect pace, told us all about the wildlife and plants in the region. The canyon is stunning, but Sergio made it an unforgettable experience for our whole family.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 53 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $78

A guided 6 km hike from Orosei to Monte Tiscali’s ancient doline, nuragic ruins, and big valley views, with shared transport and small groups.

“The Monte Tiscali trek exceeded our expectations. The views were spectacular and seeing the window of the cave in the mountain from both inside and out was fantastic. This was our second trek with Sergio and as before he went above and beyond including timing the trek perfectly to miss the rain. Sergio is very good with all levels of hikers, knowing who and when needed tips for the upcoming part of the trail. He was also very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna and history of Sardinia. Communication was excellent with all members of the group in fluent English, French and of course Italian.”
