About
Sardinia - Sardegna in Italian - is a large island in the Mediterranean to the west of Italy with a long, ancient history, and some of the dreamiest beaches you’ll find in Europe. The island’s landscape varies between its rugged, mountainous interior, sheer cliffs and silky smooth dunes. Turquoise coasts and beautiful bays make this place a real paradise on earth.
Bouldering in Sardinia may be relatively new, but is quickly becoming a popular attraction. The almost alien-like granite and limestone rock formations are visually intriguing and delightful, and create some weird and wonderful movements for climbers. On this trip we’ll aim to visit a few different areas, so walk-in times and difficulties are likely to vary. Please prepare for them to be difficult - and then be pleasantly surprised when some of them are easy!
To give yourself the best chance at climbing lots of the boulders we’ll find, we recommend you’re confident climbing V3 boulder problems before booking onto this adventure.
