The Cammino di Santa Barbara awarded best trail in the world
The Cammino di Santa Barbara – a touristic, religious and cultural trail that stretches over 400 km across Sardinia’s historic mining tracks – was awarded the Global Choice Award by Komoot, the world’s largest outdoor platform. The trail winds across one of our areas and offers hikers an authentic and engaging experience that expresses the beauty of the territory. Our commitment towards this initiative for the valorisation of the territory dates back to 2018, when we signed an agreement with the Fondazione Cammino Minerario di Santa Barbara to recover and make the former landfill site, located in the Sulcis Iglesiente Guspinese, accessible. Under the agreement, we committed to establishing free right of way for thirty years and we worked to ensure the safety of pilgrims and hikers that now can enjoy the panoramic viewpoint created on the summit of the former landfill. The new section was inaugurated in July 2019, and since then has become a significant step in the transformation of an area undergone remediation into a landscape and cultural resource for the whole community.
