Selvaggio Blu Extreme

Selvaggio Blu is known as the most challenging trek in Italy, and the "Extreme" version takes in the wildest, most spectacular stretch of Sardinia's coast. Every stage is more beautiful than the last: exposed via ferratas, rappels right above huge sea caves, landings on the most beautiful beaches of the coastline, and narrow ledges high above the Mediterranean. Even trekkers who have done the classic route find it a whole new adventure.

Trip Highlights

• Steel-cable via ferratas and exposed ledges high above the sea
• Rappels of up to 60 meters, some landing right on the beach
• A secret forest above the sea and a crawl through a horizontal crack (roped for safety)
• Refreshing swims at Cala Goloritzé and other beaches along the way
• An optional climb of the Guglia di Goloritzé for experienced climbers
• A boat ride back to Santa Maria Navarrese at the end of the trek

Nights Under the Stars

Nights are spent outdoors with a sleeping bag and pad, plus a night at a private sheepfold with a delightful dinner. Overnight gear, food and water are delivered each evening, so you hike with a light pack.

Who This Trip Is For

It's truly an "Extreme" trek, but don't be scared off. Safety is always covered on the most exposed sections, with fixed ropes set by the guide. You'll want solid hiking experience on uneven, exposed rocky terrain, good fitness for about 6 hours of walking a day, sure footing and no fear of heights. Via ferrata and rappelling experience is recommended but not required. Above all, come flexible and easy going, ready to be part of a great team.

Group Size
