Sardinia cycling holidays

The unrivalled beauty of Sardinia is pure therapy for cyclists. This Mediterranean island is a dream location with endless unspoiled landscapes and vibrant town piazzas. Discover the ghosts of Bronze age settlements with mythical ‘sacred wells’ and ‘fairy houses’. With its mild climate and varied terrain, Sardinia is a choice destination for thrilling rides or leisurely pedalling.

Why choose Sardinia for a cycling holiday?

The allure of Sardinia lies in its pristine environment and varied topography. From rugged mountains to gentle hills and peaceful coastal roads, the island will appeal to cyclists of all levels. Sparse traffic on many routes enhances the holistic experience of natural beauty, serene ancient ruins and idyllic traditional villages. The roads are perfect for cycling, covering stretches of rugged coastline, dipping down to beautiful beaches fringing the azure blue waters. Sardinia, less showy than its rival, Sicily, boasts its own culinary traditions, with pasta dishes drenched in garlicky tomato sauce, giant gamberi rossi (red prawns) and suckling pig. All washed down with superb local wine!




Weather & terrain in Sardinia

The typical Mediterranean climate of Sardinia brings hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. The best time for cycling is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) when temperatures are pleasant, and the countryside is alive with seasonal changes. Cyclists looking for long distance challenges will be rewarded with days biking through interior mountain ranges, with deep canyons and unspoilt forest. The Coral Coast offers a more relaxed experience, taking in seaside villages, lakes and river valleys, and strolls through medieval towns such as Bosa. The terrain is incredibly varied in Sardinia and stimulating routes are available for seasoned cyclists and beginners alike. Whichever you choose you’ll be blown away.
