Tips from the Community
Or the Menhir of Terrazzu (the location where it is located). A megalithic monument over 5 meters tall; its current height, however, is not its original height, as its top was damaged by lightning. It is said that it was planted in Terrazzu by the giantess Luxia, who was tasked with building a bridge between the island of Sant'Antioco and the mainland. Upon arriving, however, she saw that the bridge had already been built and, enraged, threw the boulder to the ground, where it can be seen today. In the small park where the menhir is located, there is also a bicycle repair and maintenance station sponsored by the Cammino di Santa Barbara, of which the monument is part.

Pedaling along the Porto Pino canal is truly relaxing. From here you can peek not only at the boats of holidaymakers but also at the many fishing boats with the typical colours: blue and white. Furthermore, going towards the sea along the right bank, you reach the entrance to the path that leads to the Baci cave and allows you to go around the promontory.
