Oliena

After a rich buffet breakfast, prepare for a deep dive into the island’s soul. Today’s adventure is a Jeep excursion to Mount Corrasi, the highest peak in the Supramonte of Oliena. You will travel along ancient trails through ilex forests and limestone gorges, reaching breathtaking viewpoints where the air is scented with wild herbs. The highlight of the day is a traditional lunch with local shepherds in an ancient fold. You will taste the famous porcheddu (roast suckling pig), local cheeses, and Sardinian sweets, all paired with bold Cannonau wine. This is a rare opportunity to experience the legendary hospitality of the Barbagia people. You will return to the hotel for dinner and a quiet night under the stars.

Following breakfast, the day is entirely yours to discover the wonders of the surrounding territory. You might choose to head to the Gulf of Orosei, home to some of the world's most beautiful beaches like Cala Luna and Cala Goloritzé, characterized by emerald waters and white cliffs. Alternatively, you can explore the inland villages: Orgosolo with its famous political murals, or Nuoro, the cultural capital of the region. For those interested in ancient history, the Nuragic sites of Serra Orrios are a must-see. If you prefer to stay at the retreat, you can visit the "Botteghe dell'Arte"—creative laboratories within the hotel where local artisans practice embroidery, ceramics, and painting. The day concludes with a final dinner at the hotel.
