In August, there is no water flowing there anymore, so swimming is no longer an option.

It's not really a "via ferrata" - but you need to have the ability to find your way and should be able to climb a bit to get to the top (and back down safely).

Even though it gets a bit steeper at this point and you might need to use your hands to help, this section was still easy to walk in October despite the rain. And the path is always visible. With good shoes and a bit of fitness, this climb can be mastered quite easily.

In the heart of a splendid forest you encounter the Rio Pisciaroni, bordered by an enchanting path. It's wonderful to listen to the silence of nature. Here there is a small bridge and a simple ford.

Punta Gjucantinu is the second highest peak of Mount Limbara. You can reach it easily with a path and a short climb. From the top, the view is breathtaking: you have a view that extends from the Gulf of Asinara to the Gennargentu chain. A majestic and fascinating panorama.

In the Vallicciola park on Mount Limbara, the most photographed trees are the magnificent sequoias. Near the Hotel Vallicciola, a clean path immerses itself in a forest of sequoias mixed with a few pines. The sequoias of Vallicciola, an enchanting mountain village on the Limbara, are monumental trees, planted at the beginning of the last century, which reach almost 40 meters in height.

This impressive mountain range is the highest in the region and offers an unmistakable panorama with its two striking granite peaks, Punta sa Berritta and Punta Balistreri. The rugged peaks contrast with the densely forested slopes, which form a green band around the bare peaks with chestnuts, pedunculate oaks, pines, firs and firs. As soon as you reach the summit and look as far as Corsica and the island of Asinara under clear skies, you will understand why so many hikers rave about this place. Your starting point could be the hiking car park below the summit, where the small Madonna della Neve chapel rises from granite rocks. From here you have six different trekking routes available. But maybe you would like to start the adventure in the town of Vallicciola and set off on a hike into the mountain range. Such a circular tour takes between two and a half and four hours, depending on the route. You should be alert on the way, because wild boars roam this area. It is advisable to avoid the forest and take to the road, especially at dusk. Would you like to take a break? Then find a place near the church where you can enjoy the peace and quiet and the view. And when you finally drive along the winding road that takes you into the mountains, you will find that the journey is an adventure in itself. The best time to tour the Monte Limbara mountain range is between May and October. But even in winter, the snow-covered peak offers a charming sight. You need to be sure-footed on your hike, because nature shows its wild side here. But that is precisely what makes this region so charming. So, lace up your hiking boots and set off on a journey of discovery!
