THE MUFLONE TRAIL TREKKING – ASINARA

If you’re a nature enthusiast, Asinara’s Muflone Trail is a must-visit. With abundant wildlife including mouflons, wild boars, ravens, Sardinian partridges, and various seabirds, it offers an unforgettable adventure.

Starting from the picturesque village of Tumbarino, the Muflone Trail winds through breathtaking landscapes and pristine habitats. Along the way, you’ll have the chance to explore Tumbarino’s wildlife observatory, where you can closely admire the island’s marvelous fauna.

While the trail derives its name from the plentiful mouflons, the beauty and diversity of wildlife here extend far beyond. Wild boars roam amidst the vegetation, ravens soar above, and Sardinian partridges surprise with their grace. Additionally, colonies of gulls and tufted puffins nesting near the islets of Cala di Scombro di Dentro add a touch of magic to the coastal scenery.

For birdwatching enthusiasts, this is the ideal spot. During spring and autumn, witness the magnificent spectacle of migratory species crossing the island on their journey between Europe and Africa. There’s no better way to connect with nature and enjoy its ever-changing beauty.

The Muflone Trail on Asinara offers a unique experience for nature and adventure lovers. With its abundant wildlife and breathtaking natural beauty, this trekking journey will leave an indelible mark on your memory.
