Embark on the Capo Figari and Punta Semaforo Loop, a moderate hike covering 7.9 miles (12.7 km) with an elevation gain of 1130 feet (344 metres). This route typically takes about 3 hours and 44 minutes to complete, guiding you through varied terrain from coastal paths to rugged sections with Mediterranean scrub. You will pass by beautiful white sand beaches, including the secluded Cala Moresca. As you climb, enjoy expansive views of the Sardinian coastline, the Gulf of Olbia, and the iconic pyramid-shaped Figarolo Island. The summit of Punta Semaforo rewards you with a full 360-degree panorama, reaching Tavolara Island and, on clear days, even the cliffs of Bonifacio in Corsica.
To plan your visit, note that the starting point in Golfo Aranci is accessible by public transport. If you are driving, parking is available at the Baracconi. The trail begins near Cala Moresca, and you will find equipped rest areas with tables and benches along the way for convenient breaks. Be prepared for some steep ascents and rugged sections, especially as you approach the summit. Long trousers are recommended for these parts due to dense undergrowth.
This trail offers a unique journey through the stunning landscapes of Capo Figari in Sardinia. The path showcases the region's diverse natural beauty, from its distinctive limestone formations to its rich Mediterranean vegetation. It provides a comprehensive experience of the Sardinian coast, combining physical activity with rewarding visual discoveries. The views from Punta Semaforo are particularly notable, offering a broad perspective of the surrounding islands and distant shores.
