Full description

Uncover the hidden secrets of the Nuragic village of Tiscali on Mount Tiscali with this guided hike with pickup from Orosei or Dorgali. Hike through a secret basin that is only accessible thorugh a crack in the rocky walls where Nuragic populations settled the 18th and 15th centuries BC.
