Monte Urpinu
A pine-covered hill park in the eastern part of the city, where peacocks and ducks roam freely. From the summit you can see the wetlands and Poetto.
Monte Urpinu is the city's hill park, covered with pine trees and Mediterranean scrub. The park has ponds, a children's playground, and peacocks, chickens and ducks wandering freely. Local families come here to walk and jog. The viewing platform at the top overlooks the flamingos of the Molentargius wetlands and the beaches of Poetto, and Sella del Diavolo can be seen in the distance. Entry is free, and the park is a good place to stop before or after a beach visit.
