A classy mountain bike holiday to the ever wonderful Sardinia. Remote, sparsely inhabited with long golden sandy beaches and stunning mountains, La Costa Verde is the perfect setting for this week long mountain biking extravaganza.

Amongst stunning Mediterranean scenery we ride speedy twisting singletracks to the coast, picturesque wooded trails and remote mountain passes which will excite and enthuse riders, whatever their level. Riding through remote mining villages and along rugged coastlines to fishing villages, surrounded by emerald blue seas, many of the rides finish at the beach, so don’t forget to pack your swimwear for the post ride dip!

Our base for the first part of the week, nestling in the peaceful foothills of the Arcuentu Mountains in the south west of the island, is a family-run ‘Agriturismo’. From here we take a few days to explore the network of superb trails and singletrack that link these old mining villages and that have now become Sardinia’s most prestigious MTB destination!

Moving to the coast mid-point, our accommodation is a charming hotel and is an ideal setting for the second part of our holiday! With sun terraces overlooking uninterrupted coastal and mountain views, and yet only a ‘stones throw’ from the long sandy beach of Portixeddu, what better place to relax?
