Monte Albo, Limestone mountain summit in Sardinia, Italy
Monte Albo extends for 20 kilometers between Lula and Siniscola towns, reaching an elevation of 1,127 meters at Punta Catirina and Monte Turuddo peaks.
Tectonic movements during the tertiary age caused Monte Albo to separate from the Supramonte massif, creating a 40-kilometer distance between these geological formations.
The mountain's name derives from its white limestone composition, with local Sardinian language variations including Monte Albu and Monte Arbu.
Three main trailheads provide access to the mountain range: Punta su Pigio in the northeast, Punta Cupetti in the north, and Punta Ferulargiu in the northwest.
The mountain plateau contains numerous hidden ravines and gullies, hosting rare species including bearded vultures, golden eagles, and multiple orchid varieties.
