Excursion Natural reserve and beachfront by e-bike tour at Cagliari
Cruise line: SilverseaDifficulty:
Explore the charming city of Cagliari by bicycle on this adventurous half-day tour. Your itinerary starts from the center of Cagliari, crossing to the enchanting Poetto beach. Pass by the Church of Bonaria and cross the salt pans and Molentargius Park, natural reserve of the beautiful pink flamingos.
The visit to the Park is a unique experience immersed in an extraordinarily lively and wild landscape. A place in equilibrium between mankind and the environment, between bodies of water and vestiges of ancient salt basins for some 400,000 citizens.
Within the vast area of Cagliari, Molentargius Park is an oasis for leisure just a short distance from home and for its most famous inhabitants, the pink flamingos, that find the perfect nesting place right here. Without disturbing them, you can admire these majestic birds in Molentargius, which was the richest Sardinian basin for sea-salt extraction for two and a half centuries. Salt production ceased in 1985, but its legacy is evidenced by the name itself, deriving from "molenti" (donkey), an ancient means of transporting the precious loads of salt.
The tour includes a stop in a characteristic photo stop on the beach in front of the wonderful sea of Sardinia. Return to the pier.
