The Montevecchio and Costa Verde area offers a unique heritage of nature, history and traditions. From our facility, you can set off to discover unspoilt landscapes, ancient mining trails and places rich in history. Miniera Fiorita is the ideal starting point for organising walks, treks and guided tours, as well as mountain bike and enduro trails, immersing yourself in the most authentic and wild part of south-western Sardinia.
The Santa Barbara Mining Trail
The Santa Barbara Mining Trail is a circular route approximately 500 km long that crosses south-western Sardinia, divided into about thirty stages connecting natural landscapes, historic villages and industrial archaeology sites.
One of the central stages, stage 6, which runs from Piscinas to Montevecchio, winds for about 19 km through holm oak woods, Mediterranean scrub and disused mining sites, with a significant elevation gain and a walking time of several hours at a hiking pace.
Miniera Fiorita is located right next to the route of this stage, and for those walking the trail, it can be used as a refreshment point, logistical support and a place to stamp their stage credential before continuing.
