November 27, 2025,Prähistorisches Dorf von Thapsos — Rundtour

Not recommended. Completely run-down. Parts of the path are overgrown. Historical sites are in a deplorable state and no longer recognizable as such. Trash everywhere. Refineries all around.

The restaurant 'Bagno 64' in Thapsos, on the other hand, is excellent.
