  Gal Ogliastra Baunei   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
• The territory of Baunei is situated on the oriental coast of Sardinia, on the northern border of the region of Ogliastra, with Dorgali to the north, Urzulei, Talana, Triei to the west, and Lotzorai to the south.
The popular belief is that Baunei was founded by a goatherd who, around the 10th century, abandoned the plains that were rife with malaria and threatened with invasion by the Saracens, and that it later assumed its name from the castle constructed by the Dorians between the 10th and 11th centuries, which was called Baun.
Baunei retains the traditions of its past, for example, a particular ritual that has all but disappeared completely is the ceremony known as “pletare”.

Assmuth explains that in Baunei — unlike in the United States where working women demand equality on all fronts, in­cluding the home — this concept is not negative.
She argues that this Baunei model supports economists Francesca Bet­tio and Paola Villa’s concept of “emancipation in the family” as the Mediterranean woman’s path to modernization.
I was also fascinated by the fact that, while Assmuth’s work is clearly situated within the literature on Italy and on Southern Ital­ian women in particular, she departs from it to create a picture of Baunei that is remarkably similar to the (Northern Italian) Lucche­sia that I know.

The Golgo Plain and surrounding mountains have an almost magical atmosphere, the air as crisp as that of the remotest alpine retreat.
We drove from here to Baunei, which afforded the spectacular seaward views enjoyed by our hikers earlier on this afternoon before driving back down towards Perda Longa, near L'Angugliastra, to savor views of an unusual coastal limestone pillar and flavors of some of the locally produced meats, breads, and cheeses before returning to Le Ponant.
The hard core of the archeology group led, needless to say, by Hector Williams, set off from dockside on an impromptu extra archeology trip to the nearby necropolis, or Su Crabiolu, of Lotzorai, returning just in time for our departure from port to Corsica.

At first, in the years between 1960 and 1980, he made chance encounters with the seal during his excursions with the Pio XI Speleological Group, in the Grotta[1] del Bue Marino (at Dorgali), and subsequently, in the Grotta del Fico (at Baunei).
Seals were hunted for skin, fat and, less frequently, meat (Puddu and Viarengo 1993, Altara 1995).
Baunei mountain’s (east-south-east) shepherds visited the coast to kill the seals in order to obtain skin to make Cusinzos[16], gambales[17] and other articles of clothing – as old people of the area still confirm, referring to the last decade of the 19th and the first of the 20th century (Furreddu 1973, Anon.

L'Altopiano del Golgo, (The Golgo Plateau), within easy reach of Baunei, is the starting point of countless hiking excursions and walks around this fascinating natural setting, surrounded by Nuraghs (typical primitive buildings, huge rocks with the weirdest shapes, impressive canyons and donkeys that come to greet you).
But the entire Ogliastra region has so much to offer, so many places to see (deserted villages like Gairo Vecchia, huge Menhir…) that you can spend every day in a different way and never get bored.

South of Cala Gonone lies one of Sardinia's last truly untouched tracts: swerving inland along the ridge of the Flumineddu River, walled on the other side by the Sopramonte massif, the new road brings you into a majestic mountain landscape, largely devoid of human life.
A second, shorter hike follows the course of the Flumineddu River from Dorgali and takes you after a couple of hours into the Gorropu gorge, though further exploration requires mountaineering skills and even dinghies to negotiate the small lakes in the heart of the gorge, which also terminates at Baunei.
A good first port of call for those interested in walks and excursions is Sa Domu De S'Orku, a bunker-like building near the turn-off for Urzulei.
