Selvaggio Blu sail and trekking it is the biggest adventure you can experience in the wild land of Sardinia.
The trekking of Selvaggio Blu is the most famous hike in Sardinia and one of the most popular in the world done near the sea.
The trek develops for a distance of about 50 km, covered in 5 days. Every day we will cross breathtaking landscapes suspended between the wild lands of the Sardinian hinterland and the wonderful cliffs overlooking the sea of the Gulf of Orosei, reaching wonderful beaches where there will be time to relax and swim in the most beautiful waters in Europe.
With our great team of IFMGA Mountain Guides and professional Skippers you will live your hiking week at 360°, exploring Sardinia coastline by trekking and sailing on a comfortable boat.
The hike links S. Maria Navarrese to Cala Sisine in the Orosei Gulf, through different and quite challenging paths in which the guiding of an expert is important to fully enjoy the experience.
The stages of the trek will be quite long, about 5-6 hours of walking each day. Some are more technical with exposed passages, small climbs up to grade III and rappelling.
All these situations will be handled safely by our Guides who will explain how to move from time to time.
Rope will be used in some more exposed parts, to belay and to descent cliffs. Usually you stop sleeping in farms along the way or you bivouac, but there’s also another experience waiting for you: cabins of our sailboat are ready to welcome you!
Using a rubber tender we will easy reach the beaches of the starting day trek. The tender everyday will wait us at the end of the daily trek and bring us back on the boat.
On the sailing boat we will get food, nice shower and enjoy relax moments. In case you will want to skip a daily trek part, you will be able to stay on the boat and just sail to the next bay, waiting for the group.

Climbing gear as harness, helmet, sling and a screwgate carabineer will be given by the organization.
