General presentation
Gallura et Tempio Pausania
North inland Sardinia, between granite, villages, chen-liege, small mountains and access to Gallura beaches.
Tempio Pausania, Aggius and Monte Limbara give the most eloquent landmarks of Gallura and Tempio Pausania. Together, they form a destination where the countryside, mountain reliefs, heritage and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be expected: less balneaire and summer heat. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Place
Tempio Pausania
Tempio Pausania mixes northern character with urban density, with public space alignments that make a clear cultural reading emerge. By walking through streets and squares, the city is revealed by its materials, its rhythms of circulation and its short views between ancient buildings. It is a quality step to understand the atmosphere of the region without overloading itinerary.
Place
Aggius
Aggius reads in the nuances, not in the display: small squares, narrow streets, angles that suddenly open to the surrounding countryside. The experience is more concrete when you look at the crossings between dense areas and green breathing. A gentle approach helps to capture the personality of the place without losing the thread of the rest of the journey.
Nature
Monte Limbara
The Monte Limbara offers a high landscape where the paths modulate the body at the pace of the climbs and plateaus. The views continually change between forested valleys and openings towards the sea, giving a feeling of landscape depth. It is suitable for travellers who want to connect walking, natural observation and small breaks.
Place
Luras
Luras stands in a precise local writing: narrow streets, views of the mountains, small squares that condense daily life. The place appreciates going beyond the first visual impression to observe facades, signs and secondary paths. A good way to understand the island without tourist pressure.
