The 100 Towers Trail

The 100 Towers Trail is one of the most spectacular trekking routes in the Mediterranean: a large loop that runs along the entire perimeter of Sardinia, following the coastline. Its name comes from the more than one hundred coastal towers built from the 16th century to defend the island against seaborne raids, now transformed into scenic viewpoints and iconic elements of the Sardinian landscape.

The trail passes through an extraordinary variety of environments: wild beaches, cliffs, headlands, wetlands, dunes, pine forests, rocky coasts, and small fishing villages. It is a route that combines the allure of the sea with the depth of history, offering hikers a slow journey along one of Europe’s most pristine coastlines. Ideal for experienced trekkers and anyone wishing to explore Sardinia from a unique perspective, always suspended between land and sea.
