Itinerary

Stop 1

Punta Foghe is a breathtaking natural masterpiece, shaped over millennia by the relentless forces of erosion. This dramatic plateau ends in sheer cliffs plunging into the sea, adorned with rocky islets and secluded coves. The main cove, near the river mouth, is accessible via a scenic trail starting at the base of Torre Foghe. Built in the late 16th century by the Spanish and abandoned in the mid-19th century, the 10-meter-high watchtower, constructed of basalt and red volcanic rock, features a domed circular chamber with a fireplace and an exterior staircase leading to the terrace. From here, you’ll enjoy sweeping views of the Sardinian coastline, dotted with other Spanish towers rising above the coves. This destination offers an authentic blend of history, rugged landscapes, and unparalleled vistas, making it a must-visit for lovers of nature and culture.

Stop 2

The Columbargia Tower, stands proudly on a red trachyte promontory overlooking the unspoiled natural beauty of Sa Marinedda Beach (also called Cala della Torre di Columbargia). This historic structure is part of the defensive network designed by the Aragonese to protect Sardinia's coasts. Together with the nearby towers of Ischia Ruja, Foghe, and Bosa, it was built in the second half of the 16th century. The tower not only offers a glimpse into Sardinia's rich maritime history but also provides visitors with breathtaking views of an untouched Mediterranean landscape, making it a must-see for nature lovers, history enthusiasts, and those seeking an authentic Sardinian experience.

Stop 3

The Tower of Ischia Ruja is a fascinating remnant of the defensive system devised by the Aragonese to protect Sardinia's coastlines. After Sardinia came under the control of the Crown of Aragon in 1478, coastal villages were tasked with defending the island’s shores against increasing pirate incursions. By 1479, following the union of Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella of Castile, the Spanish Crown was established, bringing new focus to coastal defense. The tower, strategically located, safeguarded vital fishing and maritime activities, embodying the island’s rich history.
