RouteXpert Review This tour connects the two coasts of Golf dell'Asinara and Costa Smeralda in the North. Wide landscapes mixed with somewhat busier coastal cities give this tour a thick 4 stars. Naturally, this tour was made the same for the MRA's Garmin, TomTom and Nav-App.
We leave from our holiday home Sa Fiorida. The rental company worked out 4 routes for the tourist motorcyclist, it was nice that they also paid attention to that.
After we have filled our tank on RP 5 we drive from the coast of La Ciaccia between beautiful landscapes to Trinità RP 10. Along Cantoniera Luncu and San Filippo enjoying the panoramic views we drive to the village of Aggius on RP 13. A beautiful village with a rich history, where the streets, houses and even the church were made entirely in granite. Nowadays the village is known for making handmade woolen carpets and for its choral singing.
We pass the Parco Sant Degna RP 15, a beautiful hiking spot with mountain paths that lead to the mountains of granite and cork oak forests and an artificial lake, obtained with the dam of the Rio La Pitraia.
Via the winding Michelin roads towards La Casedda and the beautiful green Strada Provinciale 10 towards Luras.
Beautiful landscapes lead us further to Pirazzolu, in the direction of Sottomonte, to eventually continue on via the coastline. In Cannigione, RP 30 Ristoranto Porto, we stop for a photo, coffee or food stop.
On RP 36 we arrive at the Costa Smeralda, (Italian for "Emerald Coast") is a coastal area in the north to northeast of Sardinia. The area is 55 km long and more than 30 km² in size. Costa Smeralda is very touristy and is known for its beautiful villages and beaches. The coast was developed into a luxury tourist area from 1961, when Prince Karim Aga Khan IV decided to make enchanting beaches. He used the architects Busiri-Vici and Vietti, who designed a architectural style in Costa Smeralda that would enhance the paradisiacal feeling of Costa Smeralda. This style subsequently became popular as a typical Sardinian style.
Then the road leads to Santa Teresa di Gallura, the northernmost tip of Sardinia. You can refuel at RP 40, then continue to RP 42 where we drive as far as possible to take beautiful photos and enjoy the views.
The further road leads along the picturesque coast. The almost white granite slowly turns red.
After a good 300 km the journey ends in La Ciaccia.

About this region
Sardinia ( sar-DIN-ee-ə; Italian: Sardegna [sarˈdeɲɲa]) is the second-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, after Sicily, and one of the 20 regions of Italy. It is located west of the Italian Peninsula, north of Tunisia and immediately south of the French island of Corsica.
It is one of the five Italian regions with some degree of domestic autonomy being granted by a special statute. Its official name is bilingual in Italian and Sardinian: Regione Autonoma della Sardegna / Regione Autònoma de Sardigna (English: "Autonomous Region of Sardinia"). It is divided into four provinces and a metropolitan city. The capital of the region of Sardinia — and its largest city — is Cagliari. Sardinia's indigenous language and Algherese Catalan are referred to by both the regional and national law as two of Italy's twelve linguistic minorities, albeit gravely endangered, while the regional law provides some measures to recognize and protect the aforementioned as well as the island's other minority languages (the Corsican-influenced Sassarese and Gallurese, and finally Tabarchino Ligurian).Due to the variety of Sardinia's ecosystems, which include mountains, woods, plains, stretches of largely uninhabited territory, streams, rocky coasts, and long sandy beaches, Sardinia has been metaphorically described as a micro-continent. In the modern era, many travelers and writers have extolled the beauty of its long-untouched landscapes, which retain vestiges of the Nuragic civilization.
