BETWEEN TEMPIO PAUSANIA AND TRINITA' D'AGULTU
Tempio Pausania is the main town in the Gallura
region, situated at about 600 m. on the slopes of
Mount Limbara. It represents a quite different
kind of Sardinia, less dedicated to worldly
pleasures, but more real, that of the interior
regions. It is well known for its town centre, for
its parish centre and the healing waters of
Rinaggiu.
From Tempio, the visitor must make an excursion to
Mount Limbara. In nearby Aggius it is possible to
climb on the mountains of the Capitza Park.
Going towards the coast instead, one can reach
Aglientu and the coast of Mt. Russu with the
beautiful beaches of Rena Maiore.
Travelling towards Castelsardo, along the
coastline, one encounters the wild beauty of
Trinità d'Agultu and the brightness of its waters,
together with the famous Isola Rossa (the Red
Island). In this same area, in a crystalline sea
and among fantastic rocks, it is possible to
admire the beaches, inlets and gorges of the Costa
Paradiso.
If one has a little more time and wishes to make
an excursion towards the interior of the island,
from Tempio, going through Ozieri (a town that
deserves a visit), one can reach Bono, with its
forest of Mt. Pisanu, and Burgos, where it is
worth visiting the Castel of Goceano and strolling
around the forest.
