Two years ago I took my MTB on vacation and went from Valledoria to Castelsardo coast coast…. A challenging route, even though I was not an expert I did it, but slowly and with the beauty of the landscape it repays the effort! On the way back I went through the state road… easier but still a state road!

The "house in the rock", an extraordinary pre-Nuragic architecture 'lived' until the 20th century, is in the 'heart' of a village in Anglona, in the north-west of Sardinia. It is the largest domu de Janas excavated to date.
