The Naracauli washery, also called Brassey washery from the name of the owner of the mine, the Englishman Lord Thomas Allnutt Brassey, came into operation in the first months of the 1900s and was especially destined for the treatment of blendous materials (blende is the mineral from which industrially zinc and as a by-product also cadmium, gallium and indium).
This plant was for the time one of the most modern in the field of mechanical preparation of minerals. Today, however, it represents to attentive eyes one of the many signs of the "violence" suffered by the Sardinian territory by foreign companies that exploited the mines without any benefit for the Sardinians.

Ford Crossing

Highlight • Structure

Pro tip: You don't have to cycle through the deep spot where the cars drive through; there's a footpath to the side in the bushes where you can cross with your bike almost without getting your feet wet.

Section in the Woods (Two-Way)

Highlight • Trail

It would also be very nice for the gentle slope that makes it feasible uphill towards Montevecchio. It's a shame that as of today (2/10/25) it is rideable but not very clean....it could be an interesting connection to go to/from the Crocorigas road or the Mines.
