Description
On the
Ogliastra hills, at 200m of altitude, surrounded by lush
olive groves and vineyards, lies the charming village of
Loceri. The territory has a wealth of archaeological
remains of several periods. The domus de janas, Sa
Mardona and the nuraghi of Nuraxi and of Cea
can be visited and also the giants’ tombs at Cea.
Located 20 km from the Gennargentu National Park and the
Flumendosa lake only 10 km from the coast, the small village
is in an ideal position for fulfilling the wishes of both
mountain lovers and beach fans. |

It is well
worth climbing up the hill that overlooks the village to
visit the nuragh Serra Uleri .From its summit that
dominates the valley one can enjoy the splendid view. A
visit to the Domus de Janas in the Serra Paulis
area, also called Pirarba, is fascinating. The way
there is up a path along which one can admire the typical
lush vegetation of Loceri.
Very typical are the country churches of San Bachisio,
in the popular Baroque style, dating back to the 17° century
near the soccer field, and the Sacro Cuore next to
the park named after the church itself, on the road from
Pelau to Lanusei, direction
Taccus.
