- La Costa Verde
Our base for the first part of the week, nestling in the peaceful foothills of the Sulcis Mountains in the south west of the island, is a family-run agriturismo farm, producing organic vegetables, cured meats, cheese and mouthwatering home-made pasta. Moving to the coast mid-point, our second accommodation is a charming hotel and is an ideal setting for the second part of our holiday! With sun terraces overlooking uninterrupted coastal and mountain views, and yet only a stones throw from the long sandy beach of Portixeddu, what better place to relax after a day in the saddle? Amongst the riding highlights, and there are many, are the heavenly singletrack descent through Gutturu Pala Gorge, the never ending downhill from Mt. Linas and the array of fun singletrack, through the lush cork forests of the Sulcis mountains.

emote, sparsely inhabited with long golden sandy beaches and incredible mountains, La Costa Verde is the perfect setting for this week long mountain biking extravaganza. Amongst stunning Mediterranean scenery we ride speedy twisting singletracks to the coast, picturesque wooded trails and remote mountain passes which will excite and enthuse riders, whatever their level. Riding through remote mining villages and along rugged coastlines to fishing villages, surrounded by emerald blue seas, many of the rides finish at the beach, so dont forget to pack your swimwear for the post ride dip!
