Villa San Pietro

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.

The Sant’Efisio Pilgrimage retraces the ancient route of the historic procession that, since 1657, annually accompanies the statue of the saint from Cagliari to Nora and back. It is one of the strongest symbols of faith and collective identity in Sardinia, drawing thousands of participants into a ritual that unites religion, history, and tradition.

Walking along this route means passing through agricultural landscapes, villages, historic roads, and archaeological sites, following a path that has been traveled on foot for centuries as an act of devotion and gratitude. It is a short but deeply symbolic journey, ideal for those wishing to experience a spiritual and cultural adventure firmly rooted in the island’s history.
