Urzulei E-Bike Tour in Supramonte with Aperitif
Ride through one of Sardinia's most dramatic limestone plateaus, discover a hidden lake, and savour zero-kilometre flavours at a centuries-old sheepfold.
The Supramonte e-bike tour from Urzulei combines electric cycling across rugged limestone terrain, a short trail to a karst lake, and a convivial aperitif featuring local cheeses, cold cuts, and Cannonau wine at a traditional juniper sheepfold.
Departing from the southern gateway to Supramonte at Ghenna 'e Ruge along the SS 125, the route crosses Campu Oddeu — the largest limestone plateau in Sardinia — passing through dense forests and a series of scenic canyons on a well-maintained dirt road. The landscape unfolds gradually, rewarding riders with views that shift from open plateau to deep gorge walls before arriving at the Urthaddala area.
At Urthaddala, a millennium-old Yew Tree stands as a certified natural monument, and a Tomb of Giants nearby provides an immediate connection to Sardinia's nuragic past. Riders leave their bikes here and follow a short trail through Sa Giuntura toward the upstream entrance of the Gorropu canyon, reaching the karst lake of Pischina Urthaddala at the end of the walk.
The return leg begins after an aperitif beside an old juniper sheepfold, where the guide shares the history of pastoral life in Supramonte while guests taste pistoccu bread, fine cheeses, cured meats, and wine produced by local farms within a short, fully traceable supply chain.
