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

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.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard
