Details
Description:
In the middle of Sardinia, a 4 days tour that crosses the highest mountains of the island.
The “supramonte” with its forests and its typical white rocks, through wild landscapes and desert plateaus.
The green “Gennargentu”, with its big valleys and its great peaks populated by mouflons and eagles, is the highest mountain in Sardinia (1834 mt).
The view from the top is absolutely wonderful.
Due to the steep up hills and the bad conditions of the roads the track is physically and technically quite hard, but all the pure mountain bikers will love it.
Very few asphalt parts, and very many single tracks, with some amazing downhill!
Night stop in typical “agriturismo” where the food and wine is homemade and the tastes are incredible.
