Roadbook
The trail starts at the north side of Provincial Road SP 27 to the right (facing north) of the ‘Santa Barbara’ restaurant and bar. The first section follows the route of an old forest track and is completely immersed in a forest of centuries-old holm oaks. The trail passes through the localities of Baramurgia, Sarommini and Timutzoe where, a few dozen metres from the path, is the spring of the same name.
After walking for about 45 minutes, you can leave the path briefly to the south to reach a viewpoint overlooking the town of Villagrande Strisaili and the entire coastline of Ogliastra. The trail then continues with the sharper ascent to Monte Orguda, summiting at 1361 m.
After enjoying the all-round view from the summit, start a gentle descent on a wide path towards the Genna ‘e Mela locality where the route intersects with trail 543 (Ring route of Paule Olinie). Then comes an uphill section of about 1 km leading to Baccu Olinie, which is the end point of this trail, after about 3 hours and 30 minutes of walking.
