Our journey begins on ancient dirt roads, enveloped by the scents of the Mediterranean maquis and surrounded by stunning ancient olive groves. The first stop will lead us to the Neulè Ecopark, an oasis of peace where you can admire breathtaking views of Lake Cedrino from its panoramic terrace. Here, you will also have the chance to get up close with farm animals, including adorable Sardinian donkeys, goats, sheep, pigs, and horses.
We will then continue to the nearby Neulè Nuraghe, an impressive testament to the Nuragic civilization dating back to 1600 BC. You will admire the ancient tower and discover what is believed to have been a sacred basin for ablutions, adorned with imposing vertical megalithic rocks and used during ancient rituals.
After contemplating the beauty of the Cedrino Valley from a particularly charming viewpoint, we will venture into the Dorgali countryside towards the historic center of Dorgali. Here, we will discover numerous country churches and chapels, many dating back to 1500 AD. Among these, we will visit the picturesque Carmelo chapel, which offers one of the most enchanting views over Dorgali.
The final leg of our e-bike adventure will take us along characteristic dirt roads flanked by traditional dry-stone walls, a testament to the building skills of Dorgali’s past inhabitants.
