Full description

Discover the 'wild' side of Sardinia with a half-day adventure in the Lanaitto Valley, between Oliena and Dorgali.

Saddle up for a horseback ride that will take you to visit ancient shepherds' houses and caves that bear witness to the fascinating history of this valley.

And, if you need an incentive to ride, the included breakfast andaperitif will give you all the boost you need!

What we will do

The rendezvous is at the meeting point in Oliena (NU), 10 minutes before the time chosen during the booking process.

Here we will be welcomed by the equestrian guide, who will have the horses already saddled and ready for the activity. Before setting off, we will have breakfast with coffee and Sardinian pastries and learn how to communicate with our horse and give the main commands through a 5-10 minute briefing.

We will start the ride from the square at the Su Gologone springs, venturing on horseback along the paths of the Lanaitto Valley, in the wild hinterland between Oliena and Dorgali. Riding at the pass, we will reach Su Pinnettu, an ancient shepherds' house where we can stop for a visit and an aperitif of Sardinian products, such as salami and cheese, accompanied by water and wine.

Once we have recharged our batteries, we will get back in the saddle and explore the caves that dot the valley. The experience will include a visit to an archaeological site between Grotta Sa Ohe, Grotta Corbeddu or Sa Sedda de sos Carros (the choice will be made according to the availability of the site at the time of arrival). The visit will last approximately one hour.

At the end of the visit, we will return to the meeting point after 4 hours.
