Description of the walk

(1) From the car park near the Heliport, head along the coast to reach the Calanova allotments and continue to Bassa Turi.
(2) Turn left towards the sea and then back to the left and walk along the coastline.
Arrive at the rocky point of Scogli di Longhi (3) then at a second rocky point, Punta di Scalonu (4).
Reach the beach, marking the mouth of the small stream of the Canuseddu plains.
(5) Leave the coast before the beach and head back along the stream.
(6) Cross an artificial water reservoir.
Arrive at the path back around the big loop. (7) Take a left down a hill that starts off gentle and then becomes more steep, taking you in the direction of the ridge.
Cross the ridge without taking the old track. At the crossroads when you reach way back along the shortest loop, you will discover an ancient wheat-growing area (8).
Then go right towards Bassa Turi then on to the starting point.

Very beautiful route. The signposting is well done. Medium difficulty. At the end of the route, I thought it might have been better to do it in reverse, as the section through the scrubland is less interesting than the magnificent seaside landscapes. Rachel

The first part of the route was magnificent along the coast, with just one "tricky" section between the rocks. The variety of landscapes is very pleasant and a change of scenery. The second part is much more strenuous, as the gradient is greater and you have to climb through the maquis. This is a very well-maintained trail that should be done when it's not too hot, as there isn't much shade.

A very fine walk, with no difficulties on the seaward side, but a little more arduous on the return journey.
The scenery is superb and the rocks magnificent. Done in May with very few people, a real feast for the eyes.

Very nice walk. Half of the route with sea views. Shady part on the way back in the undergrowth. If you stop for a picnic on the way to the beach, there's not much shade. It took us 3 hours with a big lunch break.

A very well signposted walk with some magnificent and varied scenery!
The average difficulty is almost easy, although it is a little long. You may wish to start the walk closer to the Genoese tower than indicated on the initial itinerary.

A very nice walk, well signposted and without any difficulties. We made a detour to visit the Genoese tower at Senetosa, which is well worth the effort, with interesting explanations inside and a fine view from the top of the tower. To get back to our route, we took the coastal path down from the tower.
Beautiful rocks and scenery along the way.
We were disappointed at Canusellu beach, where we couldn't swim because there were jellyfish!
Another point to note: all car parks in Campomoro are subject to a charge (€6 for 4 hours).

The route is easy to follow, with just one junction to keep an eye on. Very nice view of the sea and rocks. Unspoilt nature and a fun walk.

A beautiful walk along the coast, with exceptional views.
The return journey through the maquis is a little more strenuous.

A very nice walk that's accessible to families.
We were with our two children, a 6-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl in a baby carrier.
Picnic and paddling on the beach at point 4. Great for the children.

Round trip to point 4, because of the heat. Bathing on the beach at Campomoro "imperative" on the way back!
