Trekking
for more information on guided excursions, paths and trails, contact the Domus de Maria Pro Loco.

Here are some areas we suggest for your excursions:

  • “Is Cannoneris” Forest
    the low hills of the “Is Cannoneris” Nature Reserve, on the northern side of the town of Domus de Maria.
    Along the paths, through lentisk and myrtle, looking for deer and wild boar, an enchanting place if you love nature.
  • Pixina Manna Forest (in the Pula territory)
    approx. 3 km from from the Is Molas golf course there are paths towards the mountain.  After you leave your car, you can follow the small river which leads you to the Dispensa Tonietti (mountain shelter), or the more difficult path leading to the fall on rio Montixeddu.
  • The Monte Arcosu Nature Reserve (in the territory of Uta, Santadi, Siliqua and Capoterra).
    in an area of approx. 3600 hectares, inside the Sulcis mountain complex, one of the most interesting environments in Sardinia. 
    Hills and valleys, plains rich in Mediterranean plants, holm-oaks and cork plantations, centuries-old yews, junipers and carobs.
    Many paths will allow you to visit these enchanting sceneries.  

Birdwatching

  • Pixina Manna Forest
    is ideal for bird-watchers and animal-watchers: you will see red woodpeckers, ravens, buzzards and golden eagles.
