On the way we pass through several towns, including Irgoli, Loculi and Galtellì, discovering some characteristic churches, also visiting the bronze Christ statue on top of Mount Tuttavista. The total stage length is 45 km, with a total elevation gain of about 1,000 meters.
Technical description:
The route, if done by Mtb, has technical ups and downs to be tackled with caution, while if done by road bike the climbs are decidedly steep, to be tackled very slowly. There are no orientation points along the trail, so it is best to approach the tour with a licensed guide.
