Day 1: Alghero
Private transfer or individual arrival in Alghero.

Day 2: Alghero and Capo Caccia (54 km)
Start your journey with a bike ride through the narrow streets of the interesting historical center of Alghero, where the Catalan dialect is still spoken. Continuing west, cycle along the Coral Riviera to Capo Caccia, where you can visit the famous Neptune's Caves.

Day 3: Alghero – Bosa (50 km)
Ride along a spectacular road overlooking the sea, admiring the panorama of the Gulf of Alghero and Capo Caccia. The excitement continues as you see the pink, red, and gray rocks of Capo Marargiu, where the last specimens of griffon vultures fly. Stay overnight in Bosa, a medieval town dominated by the Malaspina Castle and renowned for its lace and gold filigree.

Day 4: Bosa – Santu Lussurgiu (55 km)
After visiting Bosa, head inland and discover Flussio and Tinnura, where women still weave basketry from asphodel leaves as they once did. Riding along a very picturesque road, cross Sagama to reach the S. Leonardo spring, an ideal spot for a refreshing break. End the day along a pleasant country road that leads to Santu Lussurgiu, a town famous for horseback craftsmanship.

Day 5: Santu Lussurgiu – Cabras (54 km)
Return to the coast with a wonderful panoramic descent towards the Sinis ponds inhabited by pink flamingos, where you will find one of the island's most beautiful spots: the bright white quartz beach of Is Arutas. Tonight, stay at a cozy countryside hotel.

Day 6: Cabras – Arborea (36 or 68 km)
Begin the journey by cycling on the Sinis Peninsula, between the sea and the ponds of elegant pink flamingos, the shiny white quartz of Is Arutas beach, and the fascinating Phoenician ruins of Tharros. Then, cross the medieval center of Oristano and reach Arborea.

Day 7: Arborea – Arbus (46 or 54 km)
Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Costa Verde, one of the wildest parts of the island, up to the Piscinas beach with its dunes reaching up to 50 meters: the largest in Europe.

Day 8: Arbus – Nebida (41 km)
This stage is dedicated to the ancient mining activities of Sardinia, with the fascinating abandoned mines of Ingortosu and Masua. After the enchanting cove of Cala Domestica and the impressive Pan di Zucchero rock, enjoy the view of the surprising laveria of Nebida immersed in the Mediterranean scrub.

Day 9: Nebida – Island of Carloforte – Calasetta (43 km)
After a beautiful descent to Fontanamare, reach Porto Scuso to embark for the island of Carloforte, famous for red tuna fishing. From Carloforte, go to Calasetta on the island of Sant'Antioco, where you will stay overnight.

Day 10: Calasetta – Sant'Anna Arresi (40 km)
Today, cycle through the fields, green in spring and golden in summer, on the island of Sant'Antioco. In Tratalias, the Pisan sanctuary awaits you, one of the most significant Romanesque monuments in Sardinia. Along the Monte Pranu lake, breathe in the sweetness and tranquility of the flat countryside of Sulcis.

Day 11: Sant'Anna Arresi – Pula (57 km)

🙋 Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own bike?
Of course! You can participate in any tour with your own bicycle or rent one. However, we recommend renting because not all spare parts are the same, and only with our bikes can we guarantee the best mechanical assistance.
What kind of assistance will I have during the trip?
You will always have an emergency phone number to refer to. In self-guided trips, you should be able to perform minor repairs, like replacing a tube in case of a puncture, or fixing a dropped chain, but you can always count on local assistance for more serious breakdowns.
How do I know if a tour is within my capabilities?
We classify tours on a scale from 1 to 5 based on length, elevation, and complexity of the itinerary, but if you have doubts, contact us and we will help you find the most suitable journey for you.
What is the cost of renting bicycles?
The rental cost varies depending on the bicycle model and the duration of the tour. For some tours, we offer the possibility to rent different types of bicycles. During the purchase process for each route, you will be asked to indicate your preferred bike type and the corresponding price will be shown, so you can choose freely and without surprises.
Are rented bikes equipped with accessories like lights or bags?
Yes, rented bicycles are equipped with all necessary accessories to comply with road traffic regulations (lights, bell, etc.). A lock, repair kit, and a bag to carry everything you need for a day in the saddle are always included in the rental. Additionally, we offer the option to request extra accessories based on your needs.
