Detailed itinerary
1
Following the sea route we will cross the countryside of Orosei, to reach the unspoiled naturalistic area of Su Barone, characterized by a large golden beach, bathed by emerald-colored water typical of this stretch of coast, from the thick pine forest behind the beach. and from the largest part of the pond of Su Petrosu and Avalè.
2
In the wetlands we will be able to admire a rich marshy birdlife: gray herons, egrets, coots, cormorants, moorhens, seagulls, to which migratory species such as ducks, pink flamingos, and Italian knights are periodically added. And the view will give us a magical atmosphere with the protagonists of small fish ponds in reeds and groups of fishermen busy collecting clams.
3
After a short break to observe and learn more about the area, we set off towards the Nuraghe Gulunie of Osalla, one of the best preserved in the Orosei area and the only one with similar views over the sea of the Gulf of Orosei. From its strategic position, an astonishing panorama opens up, which embraces the coast to the north to the mouth of the Cedrino river and reaches the small jewel of Osala di Dorgali beach to the south.
Enchanted by so much beauty, we reach a farm immersed in the countryside of Orosei. Here the owner of the winery, a precious custodian of local wine traditions, will have the pleasure of accompanying us on a walk among the rows.
4
Among the rows of vines we have the opportunity to touch his passion for the cultivation of Cannonau grapes, creator of the homonymous and famous oenological excellence of Sardinia.
Unmissable tasting of a good glass of red, white or rosé wine, accompanied by their artisanal products such as bread, oil and honey. The many anecdotes related to the peasant tradition and a lot of joy conclude our day together in style. To seal the day even better, you can also buy various local delicacies such as wine, oil and honey produced on the farm.
