Unique Features And Strengths

Probably THE rock spire to climb in the island.

Description

Beautiful pinnacle (Punta Caroddi) in a remote bay overlooking the see with a handful of two to three pitch ascents Best decent is down Sole incantatore, can be done in 5 abseil with a 60m rope with a bit of stretch.

Approach

From Baunei, follow the road to Il Golgo till the parking at Su Porteddu. There is a 7€ access fee to enter the nature reserve, and access is limited to 250 people so reservations are recommended during high season, see http://www.heartofsardinia.com. The trail is accessible from 7:30 to 15:00, and at 17:00, you have to begin your return. The hike takes about 45 min there, 1h back (the kind and helpful park staff say 1h there, 2h back, but that is based on the average visitor). Alternatively, check the boats going from the major towns on the East Coast - some offer bay hopping, saving you a lot of switchbacking and hiking, albeit probably no money.
