Bicycle Tours and Nature Trails in La Gallura

Nestled in the stunning natural setting of La Gallura, Santa Teresa Gallura is a gem overlooking the crystal-clear waters of the Strait of Bonifacio. This charming town combines the elegance of a picturesque historic center with the untamed beauty of its rugged coastline. For those who prefer outdoor activities on land, the surrounding areas offer the perfect setting for wonderful bike rides. As you cycle through the village streets, you’ll discover an urban landscape steeped in history: the Longonsardo Tower, built in the 16th century, overlooks the sea and nearby Corsica, while the main square invites you to stop for a coffee or browse the shops.

For those who enjoy being close to nature, the entire area offers picturesque nature trails to explore on foot in complete tranquility. As you walk along these trails, you can admire our diverse natural vegetation and be captivated by the majestic granite rocks—sculpted and smoothed by the wind and sea salt—which suddenly open up to reveal breathtaking views of the crystal-clear sea.

Among the must-see trails, the hike to the stunning Capo Testa Lighthouse stands out. Once you reach the top, you’ll find yourself at a scenic overlook where the solitary lighthouse meets the vastness of the Strait of Bonifacio. We recommend planning this excursion for around sunset: it will be a moment you’ll never forget, as the sun, right in front of you, slowly disappears as it dips into the water.
