Description

Selvaggio Blu is a renowned and intense trek in the gorgeous wilderness of Sardinia. On this 1-week adventure, we will explore this amazing route and sleep on the water in a spectacular sailboat.

The Selvaggio Blu trek links Santa Maria Navarrese to Cala Sisine on the Sardinian East Coast by foot, through different and quite challenging paths in which an expert guide is important to fully enjoy the experience. Rope will be used in some more exposed parts, to belay, and to descend cliffs. On a traditional Selvaggio Blu trek, you would sleep in farms along the way or in a bivouac, but we offer a great alternative, the cabins of our sailboat, which are ready to welcome you!

Using a rubber tender, we will easily reach the beaches of the starting day trek. Every day, the tender will wait for us at the end of the trek and bring us back on the boat. In case you would like to skip one of the treks, you will be able to stay on the boat and just sail to the next bay while waiting for the group to return. In case of bad weather, we will find the best solution to continue the trek on land, while still having the boat as a base camp.

The sailboat we will stay on is 15 meters long and 4,5 meters wide. It has 5 cabins with 3 bathrooms and has berths for ten people. On it, we will enjoy delicious meals, replenishing showers, and relaxing moments.

Selvaggio Blu is the most famous trek in Sardinia and one of the most popular trekking routes in the world done near the sea. With us, you will live and enjoy an unforgettable adventure and explore the Sardinia coast by both land and sea. Would you like to join us? Then send your request today!

About the guide

Alberto

Mountain Guide

I've been an IFMGA mountain guide since 2006 and have always loved all outdoor activities. I have always climbed and practiced sea sports.

I grew up in Trieste, the city that gave birth to great mountaineers such as Emilio Comici and Enzo Cozzolino, as well as being the city that hosts the Barcolana, the most popular and numerous sailing regatta in the world.

The activities that I propose convey my passions, in addition to the love of nature, respecting the environment, whether in the mountains or in the middle of the sea.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

Joshua

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
