Full description
Live an incredible experience in the heart of Sardinia. Near Oliena (NU ) you can transform yourself into a real speleologist for half a day and explore the 'Sa Nurre de su Hoda' cave.
We will explore the cave until we reach an immense hall with a special hole. This hole, for one hour a day, is crossed by a wonderful beam of light that illuminates the huge hall, a natural spectacle that you absolutely cannot miss!
It will be aunique and exciting adventure that, thanks to the expert guide, will allow you to get to know this place in the Lanaitto Valley in depth.
What we will do
The meeting is at 9 a.m. in Oliena, in the province of Nuoro. After meeting the guide and a quick briefing on the activity, we will board the jeep.
After a 20-minute drive, we will arrive near the "Grotta Sa Nurre de su Hoda", a large karstic cavity characterised by two entrances.
The lower entrance is accessible to all and leads to a majestic hall, rich in limestone concretions. The upper one, on the other hand, is reserved for experienced cavers and overlooks a chasm of no less than 103 metres.
With a fairly short trek (about 30 minutes, up to an hour with explanations) we will reach the cave, cross a tunnel about 1.20 metres high and 30/40 metres long to enter the heart of the cavern.
Here we will take a tour inside the cave lasting about 1 hour, with the guide explaining the different rock formations in the halls. Together we will wait for the most beautiful and evocative moment: that in which the sun will enter through a tunnel, creating a spectacular beam of light, visible for only one hour a day.
We will then retrace our steps until we reach the Jeep and return to our starting point at around 14.00 hours. The experience has a total duration of 4 hours.

The tour is suitable for everyone over the age of 12. However, it is not recommended for those suffering from claustrophobia.
