Italy, Sardinia: Lake Omodeo, Bosa, Via Ferrata del Cabirol, Sassari (Trip to Sardinia Day 5)

10 years ago, Tadej and me visited Sardinia with motorbikes and this year we decided to do it again, this time with Nada and Maja.

On our 5th day of our trip to Sardinia we decided to move to the West part of the island and started riding back North past the city Bosa. After a short visit of the castle we also had an ice-cream. We finished the visit with a quick shopping and soon we were back on the road to Capo Caccia, where we climbed Via Ferrata del Cabirol. When we finished it it started to rain, so we decided to go straight to Sassari, where we were hosted by couchsurfer Gui. Perfect timing for us.

 

 Chef prepared typical Sardinian food for breakfast: Sardines, freshly fished.

It really is an interesting via ferrata

Job done, we all survived. This adventure was also great, because it is free of charge.

Via Ferrata del Cabirol

We arrived to our host Gui all wet, so as mentioned before, a great timing for us, that we got a hard roof above our heads and a first real shower after a while. We had a glass of wine with our host and then he pointed us to a great restaurant.

 

Great dinner for a great price in 140gr spaghetteria and cheers with grappa
