The itinerary of this third edition will take you until Seui, from where we will come back with the ancient “trenino verde” (green train). The route will also take you to Punta La Marmora (1834m), the highest summit of . You will then cycle down to the pass of Genna Silana (more than 1000m) and then arrive at the beach of Cala Sisine, cycling through the Supramonte of Urzulei and Baunei. The itinerary underlines how beautiful, unique, wild and still unspoiled is Ogliastra, which extends itself from the massif of the Gennargentu to the famous beaches of Cardedu, Barisardo, Gairo, Tertenia, Cala Luna, Tortolì and the red reef of Arbatax. The coastline is characterised by imposing cliffs and natural bastions, which welcome paradisiacal sandy creeks, river outlets and canyons such as Cala Luna, Cala Sisine and Cala Fuili… but also crystalline waters, unspoiled seabed and marvellous caves such as “Le grotte del Bue Marino” where the Mediterranean seals still live. But that's not all. You will find an archaeological patrimony of nuraghi, domus de janas, tombe dei gigantic and menhir, testimony of a secular history which dates back around 2000 years b.c. This is where this exiting and fascinating challenge will take you with the first two legs of the rally based in Arzana, the third in Urzulei and the last three along the sea of Cardedu, with only two transfers.
