Activities at Agriturismo Monte Pira: beaches, horseback riding.

Horseback riding

This is the best way to explore the surrounding area.

Leaving directly from the Agriturismo, along the paths that wind in the middle of the Mediterranean vegetation, between lentisk and rosemary, you can discover our pastures and wonderful views of the sea. Or you can soak in the fresh air and in the scent of pine woods between strawberry trees and myrtle. You can go down to the beach or climb the most scenic spots where the wind brings the smell of the sea and where the eye can lay north to the promontory of Capo Caccia and south to the Sinis peninsula.

Beaches

We are just 2.5km from the beautiful and sandy beach of Porto Alabe: it is the ideal place for families with children but also for those seeking the peace of a beach which is never too crowded.
Those looking for small and solitary coves, can take the easy and scenic trail from the beach of Porto Alabe: you can and stop at the first beaches or continue and reach in about 40 minutes of the beach under the Columbargia Saracen tower.

On the contrary, if you are looking for a beach with facilities to rent chairs and umbrellas, within 10 minutes drive you can reach the beach of Bosa Marina.

However, those who love to explore and try wild and uncrowded beaches, cannnot miss to get down to Ischia Ruggia, Corona Niedda, Compultittu ...

Walking and hiking

Don’t miss the opportunity to walk through breathtaking landscapes overlooking the sea and, immersed in the scents of the Mediterranean, in an environment still wild and unspoiled, but even more the opportunity to take a bath before heading back home.

There are trails to suit all tastes: from the walks among hills and vineyards to the hikes above the cliffs, to discover places such as the promontory of Capo Marargiu where it’s easy to see the Griffins in flight, or the the white cliffs of Torre Argentina, or climb to the over 1000 meters of Mount Mannu and Montiferru.

Culture and traditions

Bosa is a city of culture and traditions and can be reached within a 15 minutes drive.

Take a walk in the narrow streets of the old town, between the colored houses surrounding the Malaspina Castle. During summer you can enjoy several initiatives : don’t miss the August Carnival and the procession of boats on the river Temo.

Summer festivals in the surrounding villages (Tresnuraghes, Flussio, Tinnura, ...) are an opportunity to get closer to local traditions and to taste our regional food.
