This site is signposted off the SP90 from Santa Teresa to Capo Testa, with a left turn taking you away from the cape into the Santa Reparata area. Down the winding road, and then at the cross roads you are directed to the left – then a T head with no signpost. We went right initially, and rather than wander aimlessly, I pulled up and used one of my stock phrases I know I need to learn any language.
“Scusi, io non parlo Italiano. Dove è la tomba di gigante, per favore?”
Hand gestures and the phrase “non-asphalto” informed us that we need to turn round as we should have gone left, and up the hill, and then taken the track to the site.
We did this, and 180 metres or so from the main road, we looked at the left fork we should take, and decided to park and walk – of course seeing a few cars stopped further down the bumpy and sandy track. Just over 400 metres later, we spotted the concrete roof of some strange building on the left, and took a track to the right towards the tomba.
Free and open access to the area – no facilities.
