Trekking in Golfo Aranci
Usually we take a day off on Sunday and if the weather conditions are adequate and we have extra energy ;) we like to have a trekking day (after a week at sea the best way of disconnect is doing a trekking itinerary).
Our study area in Golfo Aranci contains wonderful, almost untouched hills terrain and coastal land. It can be compared to a marvellous transatlantic ship ready to take to sea but that has been held up in the shipyard. Depending on the side or area you want to explore, you will come across hills (Capo Figari and Monte Ruju), grassland, rocks, valleys, forests, beaches and fantastic cliffs. All this amazing variety can be seen in Golfo Aranci area itself. Om a clear day you can see the fantastic mountains of Corsica.
The isolated conditions so typical of an island have led to a number of species and subspecies of animal and insect life that can only be found in Sardinia. The Papilio hospiton butterfly, for example, is on the list of endangered Italian butterflies. There are a number of native species of reptiles, mammals (as mouflons, Sardinian fox, wild boar, etc) and abundant birdlife (several species of Falco, hawks, Passeriformes and marine birds).
See you,
