The Black sheep of Arbus and the sand dunes of Piscinas

The Arbus countryside is home to the only black sheep farm in Sardinia, and a visit here is a unique experience. The cheese made on site is delicious because the black sheep, besides being raised free range, graze on fragrant wild herbs that give their milk an exceptional flavour. As we taste the local cheese, we can also smell the sea in the air of the Costa Verde. It is here where a small desert of extraordinary beauty stretches over many kilometres of some of the highest sand dunes in Europe. The beach of Piscinas is also a magical place: the turquoise of the sea merges with the bright colours of the yellow sand. Going up an old road immersed in Mediterranean scrub, we arrive in the Montevecchio mining area. In the nineteenth century, the mining activity here reached very important levels, and the structures and houses that are preserved, after the mines closed in 1991, feature architectural elements of considerable value. This is why Montevecchio is a UNESCO monument.
