Stage 25

Total Length: 23,4 km

Difficulty by Foot: Medium

Travel times: 7 hours and 30 minutes

Climb up: 273 m

Climb down: 198 m

Most of the route runs along an old track of the Ferrovie Meridionali Sarde (FMS) that today has been transformed almost entirely into a pedestrian and cycle track. For about half a century (from the early 1920s to the early 1970s), this route ensured the mobility of people in the area, as well as the transport of coal from the Great Mine of Serbariu to the port of Sant’Antioco.

This is one of the longest stages of the Trail, but it is very easy and without any particular difficulties.

Tappa 26

Total Length: 26,4 km

Difficulty by Foot: Hard

Travel times: 8 hours

Climb up: 504 m

Climb down: 498 m

From industrial archaeology to classical archaeology, from the coal mines of Serbariu to that of Nuraxi Figus, which are encountered respectively in the initial and final sections of the stage, the entire route is a sort of large open-air archaeological park, where it is possible to walk through the traces of the last 5,000 years of the territory’s history.

ATTENTION: in this stage there are no restaurants or pizzerias, there is a grocery store where you can buy everything you need for dinner and supplies for the following day.
