Selvaggio Blu in Sardinia is considered one of the most beautiful and adventurous treks in the Mediterranean. A spectacular itinerary along the wild coast of Baunei, in the heart of the Supramonte, where limestone cliffs drop straight into the sea and every stage becomes a complete experience of trekking, exploration and adventure.
This is not a classic hiking route. Selvaggio Blu crosses remote terrain, exposed passages, ancient shepherds’ paths and sections where rope manoeuvres are required. Between Mediterranean scrub, sea-view ridges, hidden coves and impressive limestone walls, the route follows one of the most fascinating and isolated stretches of coastline in Sardinia.
The experience combines trekking, easy climbing, abseil descents and bivouacs in wild natural settings. It is a demanding and immersive journey, where the sea is always present but never simply decorative: it accompanies the route, opens the horizon and becomes part of the adventure itself.
