This is just a hill. However, it is in a wonderfully quiet location in the forest. We didn't meet anyone.

May 8, 2025, Cork Oak Forest at Punta Zepparedda

The entire plateau is wonderful, but this forest area is definitely one of the most beautiful.

This is where the cork is harvested, from which the corks for the wine bottles are later cut out. A cork oak is not stripped for the first time until it is at least 25 years old and then it takes another 9-12 years until the cork can be harvested again. It's crazy.

November 13, 2023, Parco della Giara

One of the entrances to the Parco della Giara is located here. There is a large free parking lot. A local guide is also on site. There are several feeding places in the park where you can meet the wild horses. However, it is much nicer to watch them in the middle of nature.

January 3, 2023, Giara Plateau Park

The Giara di Gesturi plateau is home to the small wild horses "Cavallini della Giara", which are very rare in Italy and Europe. Here the Parco della Giara was set up to protect them. The landscape consists mainly of cork oaks and Mediterranean maquis. Often you can only hear the cute wild horses neighing from afar. With a bit of luck you can also spot them and watch them nibble on the green of the trees. The park can be visited on your own or you can book a guided tour. More information is available here: https://parcodellagiara.it/?lang=en

Great botanical garden. The old tree from which the lower layer of bark has been removed is particularly interesting. The thickness is incredible.
