Loceri

Loceri, known for its colourful murals, lies in a gentle hollow among hills that open towards the sea. Its mild climate, fertile land and natural springs are ideal for olive groves and vineyards. Positioned between the peaks of the Gennargentu, only a few dozen kilometres away, and some of Ogliastra's most beautiful beaches, which can be reached in a short drive, Loceri works well for travellers who want to combine mountains and sea.

The area is also rich in archaeological sites. One of the most notable is the Serra Uleri nuraghe, standing on a hill above the valley with wide views over the surrounding landscape. Other remains include the Cèa nuraghe and the Domus de Janas of Sierra Paulis, where ancient structures emerge from Mediterranean vegetation.
