Access to the starting point is from the RD155 at the Col de Filippina. At the hairpin bend, follow the signs at this intersection for Capu di Moru and Cala d'Orzu. Follow the small road to the junction at Punta Figoni and continue to the right. Go through a hamlet, staying on the small main road until you reach a T-junction. Leave the road on your left (Cala d'Orzu) and continue towards Monte Biancu until the end of the paved road. At the exit of the hamlet, after the last houses, park on a small sandy area on the left where the path begins.
(S/E) Take the dirt track westwards until you reach the barrier blocking the path.
(1) Continue on the main path until you reach an intersection. Take the track on the left that descends. After 300 metres, leave the path that branches off to the left and continue straight ahead.
(2) At the Y-junction, take the path on the right towards the Genoese tower (small signpost). Cross the undergrowth to the tower, where the summit is accessible by stairs.
(3) To leave the tower, leave the path on the left that you arrived on and take a track that climbs up to the right through the scrub.
(4) When you reach an open area with a house, take a narrow track to the west (small signpost indicating Capu di Muru). Continue through the scrub along this path, which leads to the coast and the tip of the peninsula. The route then stretches across the granite chaos and arrives below the lighthouse and the Madonella chapel. The return journey is easy along the coastline towards the east and Cala d'Orzu.
(5) At the T-junction, leave the path that continues straight ahead and start climbing the path on the left that leads up to the ridge.
(6) You will come out onto a wide track. Turn right and return to the initial Y-junction you passed on the way out.
(2) Go straight ahead to return to the starting point. You will reach the car park at the exit of the hamlet of Cascionu (S/E).
