In terms of nature reserves, my absolute favorite, and that's because it's right in my backyard, will be Molentargeo's nature Reserve in the east of Sardinian's capital city, Calieri. This is an incredible oasis that was created in 1999 when, as I recognized, Ramser Wetland, once the old southwark ceased operation in 1985. It's a heaven for wildlife, especially migrating birds which nest here in the winter months. And especially of interest will be the fact that you can see pink flamingos. Now you can visit year round to see flamingos. That's possible throughout the year. I would recommend spring and fall as the best months because when it's so hot, the flamingos tend to hide. You can walk around the park freely. The park is free to access. You can also explore by bike, by the way. It's also an amazing place to to go for a run, if that's what you like. The park is easy to reach by bus from the center of Cagliari. You can get off at Ospedale Marino bus stop. Ospedale Marino bus stop at Poeto beach and just walk from there. Another park that is fairly close to a city would be Parco di Porto Conte and Capocaccia. Porto Conte Nature park in Alghero, northwestern Sardinia. It boasts a dramatic coastline, forest, lagoons, hidden coves, sandy beaches, and it's one of the most famous regional parks in Sardinia. It's one of the most beautiful parks in the Mediterranean. In fact, Capocaccia is one of the most stunning places in the park, one of the most captivating areas on the island. There are grottoes here, the fascinating Grotte di Nettuno, which you can reach via the Scala del Cavirol if you would like a little bit of a hike or by boat from Alghero, the best time to visit I would say spring and autumn if you want to hike. But if you are okay with the heat, the park is open in the summer as well. There are some incredible hiking trails in the area. I also really like the Ozzy Biderosa which is located near Orosei in the eastern side of Sardinia and not too far from other more famous places like for example Calagonone, which gives you access to the Baune coast, which we call locally Golfo di Orosei. It's a protected area that is only open to the public from May to October. Here there are five gorgeous coves among the best beaches in Sardinia. But not only there are many biking and hiking trails you can explore independently or on guided tours. You can also rent kayaks. You can follow the many trails. Keep in mind that if you visit in the summer, you will have access to the stunning beaches. And while the other beaches in the area are particularly crowded, the O? AZI Biderosa is is a heaven. It's a peaceful heaven that you can enjoy. Oasibiderosa is about 15 minutes drive from Orosei. You will need to reserve your admission by calling the the park at least 72 hours in advance. There are also guided tours on offer. Now my favorite nature reserve in south Sardinia will be the Giara Digestuni. It's shared between the provinces Radio Campidano and Oristano.

In Sardinia's heartland. It's a rolling green plateau famous for being home to wild horses. Much of this area is covered with makia and ancient oak woodlands. What's special about it is that there are archaeological sites spread around 23 nurage. But my favorite thing to do here is wildlife. Spring spotting. The many hiking trails will allow you to visit to see one of the last species of wild horses in Sardinia, the Cavallini della Jarra. Small horses of the Jarrato you can visit year round. I recommend visiting in the spring, which is when most horses will be visible. I actually visit in February with a guide and got to see lots of animals anyways so it's a good place to visit year round. One thing to keep in mind is that it's very easy to pair this visit with one of the Barumini Sunuraji Nurage, so an archaeological site nearby, because they are fairly close. Again, I recommend booking a guided tour of the Jarrah Plateau, the Parco della Jarrah up. It's easier to see the wild horses this way. You may have heard of the Guropo Gorge. This is the Grand Canyon of Europe. A deep slice in the earth etched out of the landscape by the Rio Fluminendo over millennia. To appreciate the beauty of this place to its fullest, it's best to go hiking. There are many hiking trails of various difficulty levels. The best time to go hiking here is in the spring and early autumn. Don't go hiking there in the summer because it can be terribly hot. There are many trails. My favorite would be the Jenna Silana, which is actually very very hard. But there are also easier hikes. You don't need a guide because all the trails are well marked. But a guide will definitely be able to help you and will able to pace you, which is not not to take for granted. Finally, I want to mention the Altopiano del Golgo. This is the plateau that overlooks the Baune coast and from which a bunch of hiking trails to the various hidden coves of the Bounet coast depart. It's known for being home to a lot of wildlife. There are horses, there are donkeys, and there are also animals such as goats, sheep, cows and whatnot. It's easy to reach from Baunai and also from Santa Maria Navarrese. Nearby there are several trails. There is a lovely small church that you can visit. And of course from here you can find the trailhead to the various hikes that take you to beaches like Cala Golorize or Cala Mariolu. Now I finally want to mention the Monte Archi park, which is a massive in southwestern Sardinia known for its three volcanic basel towers, Trebina Longa, Trebina Lada and Coronjo de Cizoa. There is a little bit of everything here, from forests that make it cool to hike when it's hot, to nuragic ruins that feel like you could be discovering a hidden remote location. And you may be the one seeing them for the first time. It's easy to access. There are facilities dotted around, barbecue spas, picnic areas for visitors to use. This makes it a very popular spot for families. It's great to visit in any season. There are many hiking trails here, so you shouldn't worry too much if you're visiting with your family. I want to mention one last regional park here in Sardinia, which is the Sete Fratelli Montegenis Regional Park. Again, located in South Sardinia close to Cagliari. It was created in 1989. It's a large forest, forested, massive, teeming with wildlife. The south is centered around the Sette Fratelli, literally Seven Brothers Mountain, named after seven jagged peaks, the tallest one of which is Punta Saraja, which is more than a thousand meters in height. It's one of the largest parks in Sardinia. There are river valleys, weights of holm oaks, forest and macchia scrubland. It's great to visit in the spring or fall. There are several trails that are super well marked, easy to follow even if you have children and even if you're not unexpected Experienced hiker Now this brings me to the end of my episode.
