Sobre
Fatos rápidos: O circuito costeiro de 12 quilómetros circunda a ilha onde Giuseppe Garibaldi passou os seus últimos anos, com a sua simples casa branca ainda visível desde a trilha. Rochas de granito do tamanho de carros bordejan a costa, esculpidas pelo vento em formas que mudan com cada tempestade.
Destaques: Observa atentamente as formazioni de granito perto do lado oriental e notarás bacias naturais esculpidas pela maresia, algumas contendo água do mar que cintila como turquesa líquida. Os pescadores locais chamam a estas formazioni "as banheiras do gigante" e, em dias calmos, a água reflete o céu tão perfeitamente que não se consegue dizer onde termina a rocha e onde começam as nuvens.
Dicas de quem conhece
- Start clockwise from the bridge for dramatic coastal views first, saving the wooded inland stretch for the return.
- Wear sturdy shoes: the granite sections get polished smooth by wind and can be slippery near the water.
- The only drinking water tap is at the Garibaldi museum entrance, so carry at least 1.5 liters per person.
- Bring a swimsuit and towel, some of the most swimmable coves like Cala Portese are mid-trail with zero crowds.
