The Best Motorcycle Roads in Northwest Sardinia
Five roads between Alghero, Castelsardo and the Gulf of Asinara that make the northwest the most underrated riding region in the Mediterranean.
Most riders land in Olbia and turn right towards the Costa Smeralda. That is the mistake we quietly depend on. Turn left instead and within an hour the traffic thins, the tarmac gets better and you have an entire coastline to yourself.
SP 90 — Castelsardo to Trinità d'Agultu
Fast, flowing, and stitched along the cliffs above the Gulf of Asinara. Wide sightlines, third-gear corners, and a sea that changes colour every ten minutes. Early morning is best — the light comes from behind you and the road is empty.
SS 134 — the Coghinas river valley
Our home road. It climbs away from the water through cork oak and vineyards, the same valley the Cannonau in our cellar comes from. Slow it down here; there are tractors, and there are views worth stopping for.
Anglona back roads
Unmarked lanes between Sedini, Bulzi and Perfugas. Rough in places, which is why a Caballero is more fun here than a big tourer. Romanesque churches appear out of nowhere in empty fields.
The Alghero coast road
Capo Caccia at the end of the day is the single best sunset viewpoint on the island. Ninety minutes from our basecamp, a perfect afternoon loop.
Monte Limbara
If you want altitude and hairpins rather than coastline, Limbara delivers both. Granite, pine, and cool air even in August.
All five sit inside a day's ride of our basecamp at Tenute Costadoria. We put them in the roadbook we hand you on arrival.
