Tips from the Community

Luigi D'Imperio
October 13, 2025, Nuraghe S'omu e s'orcu

Nuraghe S'Omu 'e S'Orcu, meaning "the house of the ogre," is a Nuragic complex dating back to between 1500 and 900 BC. The imposing structure comprises a central tower, a bastion with an internal courtyard and cistern, and a rampart with five towers enclosing the Nuragic village. Traces of fire and smelting slag were found in one of the towers, evidence of metallurgical activity linked to the rich copper and tin deposits in the area. For more information on the site's history, services, and tours, visit the website: https://domusnovas.nuraghesomuesorcu.com/.

The evocative Grotta di San Giovanni is a geological and archaeological treasure, as well as the longest vehicle-accessible cave in the world. The cave is accessible from two sides, but the ticket office and information point are located at the main, southern entrance. Entrance is permitted only during cave opening hours. Ticket prices vary depending on the type of visit. You can find all the latest information on the website: https://www.grottasangiovanni.com/.

The cave is accessible from both sides, but the official entrance, where the ticket office and information point are also located, is the south one, on the opposite side. It is also possible to enter from this side by ringing the intercom and waiting for an operator to come and open the door for you. Entrance to the cave is subject to a fee and is only possible during opening hours. More information is available on the website: https://www.grottasangiovanni.com/

The Linasia Mountain Garden reconstructs the natural environments typical of the Marganai area over approximately 9,000 square meters. Located next to renovated mining buildings, it is home to numerous local botanical species, some of which are very rare, such as the Monte Linas helichrysum and the Sulcis pinnacle. Guided tours are available during certain times of the year. For information, please contact the Forestry Authority at +39 0781 20060.

Beautiful stretch of road through a broadleaf forest, which leads to the northern entrance of the cave of San Giovanni. The cave is always open but to access it you have to book the entrance, which has a very small cost. Cycling inside a karst complex is a unique experience in the world!
