The park of Mullò, surrounded by hills teeming with the maquis, is an uncontaminated area where luxuriant lentisks and ancient carobs grow. Instead, among the junipers of Mount Munduja you will be able to practise birdwatching and to see the golden eagle, many specimens of hawks and the bearded vultures.
A tomb of giants has been recently unearthed on the Osono plateau; twenty years ago it was covered with very thick bushes of rock rose and lentisk but a drastic cleaning of the area brought to light an archeological monument that is unique in the whole Sardinia. Built with blocks of white limestone, it is 22 metres long, while the mortuary alone measures 10 metres. The nuragh of Bau Nuraxi is also very interesting: it consists of one central tower and two lateral, of a boundary wall with four towers and some circular huts, still visible.
Local dishes are goat broth and the roasted goat, while among the agricultural products honey stands out, especially the one made with the strawberry tree. There are also excellent wines made from the 'cannonau' grapes and the grappas (filu ‘e ferru).
