The Itineraries in the Sulcis Iglesiente area include: - Sea and beaches, from the charming inlet of Gonnesa, to Pan di Zucchero, (recognised by UNESCO as part of the World’s Heritage), the islands of San Pietro- with its characteristic town of Carloforte– and Sant'Antioco. The splendid, unspoilt beaches of Portixeddu, the dramatic coastline of Buggerru, Porto Pino, the endless sand-dunes at Piscinas, Cala Domestica and Punta delle Oche. - The mountain and the mining area of Fluminimaggiore, characterised by the gorges of the river Rio Oridda and the slopes of Monte Linas, one of the highest peaks in Sardinia, ideal excursions, trekking and climbing. Another must for Visitors are the splendid caves of Is Zuddas, Santa Barbara and Su Mannau, as well as the rolling forests which abound in fascinating paths, many laid in ancient times. - Culture: Carbonia and Iglesias, chief towns of the new province which defines the territory, boast numerous fascinating archaeological sites and beautiful monuments, testimony to the area’s rich history: The Antas Temple, dating back to III Century AD, the Domus de Janas (fairy dwellings) and the mysterious Nuraghi prove that man’s presence in the area dates back to the dawn of civilisation, attracted by the region’s rich mineral deposits. Carbonia, a town which still today bears witness to the mining heritage of the Sulcis Iglesiente area, and the Punic Necropolis of Monte Sirai, offer visitors an extraordinary insight into the fascinating history of this corner of the island. Each year the area hosts a variety of events and festivals for all tastes, such as the Jazz Festival of Sant'Anna Arresi, the Narcao Blues Festival, the ancient rites of Holy Week and popular traditions. For all excursions and itineraries our Bed & Breakfast offers the services provided by the StartUno Cooperative.
