The indomitable ultra-runners of the "Sardinia Trail" will pass from the highest peak on the island, "Punta La Marmora", on the Gennargentu, to the white beach of Perd'e Pera on Ogliastran coast. From 1.834m above sea level immersed in a wild and unique nature, like in a natural playground, between mule tracks, routes and steep passages.
Divided into three stages for a total of about 100 km and 4,000 meters of ascent, the race will involve the municipalities of Arzana Cardedu, Desulo, Gairo, Lanusei and Tertenia. And this year the route is even more exciting, so much to collect the support of stronger and stronger athletes, including foreigner ones.

Hospitality 4 stars
A unique race of its kind and with a peculiarity: the athletes (and their companions) will benefit from hospitality and welcoming at the four-star resort , enchanting location on the seafront of Orrì. Ideal place for those who like holidays with sport, relaxation and beauty.
In fact there are many activities that resort offers: from scuba diving at the scuba diving centre to windsurfing lessons, from sailing to canoeing. But also tennis, mountain biking and beach volleyball. For an active holiday, reconciled by the wild beauty of this pristine corner of Sardinia.
