What you can expect

  • There is a place in Porto Conte Natural Park where nature and history meet at the most beautiful time of the day. It is called Monte Murone, an outcrop of Monte Doglia, and at sunset it becomes one of the most extraordinary lookout points in all of Sardinia.
    With local guide Simone, you'll set off at 6:00 pm, when the light begins to warm and the scent of Mediterranean scrub fills the air. The approximately 4-km loop trail is easy and suitable for everyone, but along the way it conceals a historical surprise that few people know about.
    The remains of the 103rd Murone Coastal Battery emerge from the vegetation: emplacements for 149/12 howitzers, underground bunkers, subterranean passageways and shelters for soldiers. It was built during World War II in anticipation of an Allied landing in Porto Conte Bay.
    Those structures have remained there, silent, swallowed up by the scrub, telling a story of waiting and tension that never escalated into conflict.
    Then, upon reaching the summit, the panorama opens up over Capo Caccia and the sea: the sun plunges into the water in front of you in a show that alone is worth the trip to Sardinia.
    AIGAE-certified guide. Small groups, intimate experience.
