The best road cycling routes around Santu 'Èngiu/San Gavino Monreale

Not an oak but a centuries-old pine, known as Sa Matta Manna De Su Cumpingiu. The tree died about five years ago, knocked down by a strong wind. Sadly, the park is not currently maintained and the majestic tree is barely visible.

Scenic waterfall at the gates of Villacidro, Sa Spendula is the last stretch of the Coxinas river, which makes three leaps between high granite walls for a drop of about 60 meters. Easily reachable from the town, it is particularly striking between autumn and spring, when the water flow is greater, and is often combined with excursions to the nearby waterfalls of Piscina Irgas and Muru Mannu.

Excellent place to rest after the climb from Flumini Maggiore, before going downhill and partially on gravel among the cork trees

With approximately 14,000 inhabitants, Villacidro is one of the main towns in the Medio Campidano region and is located at the foot of the Monte Linas massif, in a green valley surrounded by hills and streams. The town is known for its olive oil, citrus fruits, and cherries, as well as for its strong artisanal and gastronomic traditions. In the historic center, you'll find shops, bars, restaurants, and various accommodation options. Nearby, the Sa Spendula waterfall, one of the town's symbols, and the Canale Serci mine, where tin was mined as far back as the Nuragic era, are worth a visit.

At the foot of the Monte Linas massif, the town of Gonnosfanadiga lies at the transition between the Medio Campidano plain and the first hills of southwestern Sardinia. The area preserves numerous archaeological remains, including nuraghi and Giants' Tombs, such as that of San Cosimo, among the largest on the island. The town, with a population of approximately 6,000, is closely linked to agriculture and craftsmanship: local knives, honey, wine, and oil are famous. Strolling through the town center, you'll notice the centuries-old wells that once served wayfarers and still serve as meeting points for the community. The town has shops, bars, and restaurants, and throughout the year, festivals dedicated to bread, olives, and oil are held.

Erected in honor and tribute to the miners who worked and often died in local mining operations.

In the distance, beyond the first bend, after abandoning the few remaining houses, you can see a church, the church of Sant'Angelo, on which you can see two dates (1734 and 1914), the dates of construction and renovation of the church.

The mountain village of Sant'Angelo was founded with the founding of Fluminimaggiore (of which it is a hamlet) in the early 1700s. It consists of a few houses, scattered throughout a lush surrounding woodland, and charming but abandoned villas. In the second half of the 19th century, the village was part of an area (representing the largest agricultural and pastoral estate in Sardinia) known as "Sa Tanca de Modigliani." The associated mining activity brought Emanuele and Flaminio Modigliani (grandfather and father, respectively, of the artist Amedeo Modigliani) to the area, making it plausible that Amedeo frequented it.
