A mix of road walking and agricultural tracks take you up to San Leonardo with sweeping views on the way. Spend a little time looking around this village, the church and springs are interesting.
Another mix of road walking, tracks and paths will get you back to Santu Lussurgiu. You will have time to divert to the viewpoint above the town where a statue of Christ overlooks the village and to walk down through the maze of narrow streets of Santu Lussurgiu.
3rd day: Santu Lussurgiu – Santa Caterina di Pittinuri (24 km/7h)
After a quick shuttle to the Montiferru mountain, the route descents to Santa Caterina di Pittinuri, located right on the sea. You will be crossing oak forests, olive groves and quiet pastures.
4th day: Is Benas – Putzu Idu (17 km/5h)
You shuttle to the Is Benas lagoon, home to large colonies of Grey Herons and Pink Flamingos. A beautiful track along the limestone cliff leads you to the beach of Su Pallosu and Capo Mannu, with the light house and the ancient Spanish watchtowers. Your base tonight is Putzu Idu, a village located on a stretch of coast often visited by the strong Mistral wind which made it a popular spot for sailing and surfing.
5th day: Putzu Idu – San Giovanni di Sinis (20 km/6h)
The day starts walking on the amazing cliffs of Su Tingiosu, 6 km of limestone plenty of bird nests. The cliffs end in the beautiful quartz beaches of Is Aruttas and Mari Ermi whose sand is made of little grains of quartz quite similar to rice seeds. In the final part of your day, you move inland, crossing artichoke and wheat fields to arrive in San Giovanni di Sinis.
6th day: Tharros loop (14 km/3h30’)
A day trip walking across fields and by the side of the lagoon to San Giovanni, on to the interesting site dating back to the 8th century BC site of Tharros. Visit the ancient Basilica Paleocristiana di San Giovanni di Sinis dating back to 470AD. Here you join the main tourist track to the site of Tharros. An hour here and a stop in the café will set you right for a loop around the Capo S Marco using the smaller footpaths that skirt the coastline.
7th day: San Giovanni di Sinis – Cabras (14 km/4h)
A pleasant path lead you out of San Giovanni, passing through San Salvatore, famous for its church erected over an hypogeum. The destination is Cabras, the main centre in the Sinis. During the itinerary you walk along artichoke fields, Vernaccia vineyards, olive groves and the Cabras Lagoon, the largest in the area, famous for the grey mullets and above all its Bottarga, the cured roe of mullet. Don’t miss the fresh fish, the Bottarga and the Vernaccia wine.
