Daily Excursions
Hello, very pleased I list some of the many paths that we might explore together. They are listed demanding routes, and simple enough for those who do not want to sweat too much. I find myself in Arzana, a small village in the Ogliastra province, and I will be happy to welcome you to make you discover the beauty of the area.
Are you wondering how to organize yourself for an excursion with MTB SARDINIA?
It 's very simple, contact me by phone or simply by filling out the format that you will open from the following link: FORMAT BIKERS
Thank you
Michele
