Hike to Cala Goloritzé

Hiking
This Tour crosses the Bacu Goloritzé, a crowded gorge during the summer. The trail is well-trodden and easy to follow. However, consider the elevation gain on the way back. Since there are no springs along the route, it is essential to bring an adequate amount of water, especially in the summer months.
Access to the beach is regulated by the municipality of Baunei and requires a ticket, which can be purchased at the start of the path.
Starting from Su Porteddu, go through the gate and, past the ticket office, take the clearly visible path. The track climbs up to pass a saddle at 470 metres, from which you can already enjoy a splendid view of the sea of Cala Goloritzé.
The path then begins to descend with a constant difference in altitude. You will find some smaller branches, among which there are links to the famous Selvaggio Blu hiking route. Crossing an impressive natural arch, you pass near the rocky pinnacle of Aguglia di Goloritzé, a popular climbing destination throughout Europe. After this spectacular natural monument, a few steep meters separate you from the wonderful Cala Goloritzé.
The return follows the same path, but it is important to remember that you will have to face 450 meters of altitude difference uphill.

Ticks!
Take enough food with you and don't pick the hottest weather. Otherwise very nice and recommended! The way back is very exhausting :-)

... so expectations were pretty high
😂😂
Since Cala Goloritzé won the "#1 in the world" award in 2025, the entrance fee is obviously easy to market 😆.
Getting a ticket for the beach is harder than booking a ticket for a top act at Eventim.
Sales start three days in advance …

This hike was quite strenuous due to temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius. Nevertheless, the extraordinary natural surroundings there were an absolute experience.
