Barbagia is fascinating area of Sardinia; an initial discovery reveals a terrain rugged yet articulated (perhaps the wildest on the Island), and a world where customs and traditions pair with a generous people. It is a life characterized and preceded by millennia of fascinating history. In its east is the Supramonte Ogliastrino, a chalky plateau dominated by Monte Corrasi (4, 800 ft high) and extending throughout the territories of Oliena, Orgosolo, Dorgali, Bunei and Urzulei. It is jaw-dropping and spectacular, cut by deep, jagged valleys (called codule) that lead towards the sea by piercing the calceous littoral walls. The result is a spectacular landscape characterized by gorges and cliffs. Orgosolo where we will go is at the heart of this region, a town known in the past as the capital of the bandits but, nowadays, it is just an open air museum full of tourists which come to see its murales.
From the Olbia area, we'll reach the Barbagia in about one hour with the car. After the first stop for a coffee in a gas station near Dorgali, we will visit, if the people wish to do it, the chasm of Ispingoli. A cave dominated by an enormous 38-meter high limestone column, one of the tallest stalactite-stalagmite examples in Europe. In the past, it was known as the Virgins' Abyss, a name with haunting significance: archeological research has discovered that the site was probably used by the Phoenician as a sacrificial well. If you suffer vertigo and don't feel to go down on chasm, we'll go to Monte Ortobene, the sacred mountain of Nuoro, to see in its top, the bronze statue of the Redentore, and after we will visit a cavern still used as a house by the shepherds. Finally, we will go to the Orgosolo Supramonte, where we will enjoy tasty, typical Sardinian open-air cooking, among the ancient holm-oaks, with the genuine flavors of Barbagia and its strong wines and grappa.
