Barbagia is a land steeped in history and tradition, where the authenticity of one of the world’s oldest regions can still be felt in every detail.
Accompanied by an expert guide, you’ll travel to Nuoro, known as the “Little Athens” of Sardinia, with the opportunity to visit the fascinating Ethnographic Museum, a window into the island’s rich cultural heritage.
Your next stop is Orgosolo, the birthplace of “canto a tenore”, a traditional form of Sardinian polyphonic singing recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage. As you stroll through the village, you’ll admire its famous murals—evocative artworks that turn the streets into an open-air gallery, earning Orgosolo the title of the capital of Italian muralism.
The experience ends with a traditional shepherds’ lunch in a rustic countryside setting, under the shade of centuries-old holm oaks and junipers. Enjoy a genuine taste of Sardinian hospitality, enriched by folk performances and stories passed down through generations.
