Weekend in Baunei: a 2-day itinerary
Two days in Baunei are enough to taste the best of Ogliastra: one cove of the Selvaggio Blu, the Golgo plateau and an evening in the village. Here's an itinerary tested by our guests.
Day 1: Cala Goloritzé
Early morning: coffee at the property, drive to the Golgo parking lot (9 km). 3.5 km hike to the bay (about 1 hour).
Swim and packed lunch on the beach. Hike back in the afternoon. Dinner in Baunei at a village trattoria: culurgiones and roast pork.
Day 2: Golgo plateau and Pedra Longa
Morning on the Golgo plateau: the karst sinkhole, the small San Pietro church, an agriturismo for a typical Ogliastra lunch.
Afternoon at Pedra Longa: park, short trail to the monolith, swim in clear waters. Sunset aperitivo on the Santa Maria Navarrese promenade.
What to bring
Hiking shoes, swimsuit, beach towel, hat, at least 2 litres of water per person for the hikes.
A car is essential — the trails and coves aren't served by public transport. High-SPF sunscreen and a light jacket for evenings in the village.
