Selvaggio Blu Wild Hike

a combination of great outdoor activities, requiring participants to utilize a variety of disciplines. You will be abseiling, scrambling, hiking, and climbing along the limestone cliffs and caves, no easy feat and one that is definitely fulfilling to complete successfully. The Selvaggio Blu Trek is often referred to as Italy’s hardest trek and is located about halfway up Sardinia’s east coast in the island’s Baunei region. It follows the wild coastline of the Gulf of Orosei. Parts of this trek are technical and demanding involving some short stretches of rock climbing and abseiling. Whilst the Selvaggio Blu Trek is undoubtable technical it does pass through some stunning scenery. This ranges from narrow footpaths that lead over undulating trails along the edge of sea cliffs, to the old tracks of goatherds and charcoal burners, and hidden beaches between vast cliffs of limestone. The trail passes through one of the last true wildernesses of the Mediterranean where there are no roads or habitations. The full trail takes normally 5/6 days to complete.
