Monte Cuccuruddu, Mountain summit in Cheremule, Italy

Monte Cuccuruddu rises to an elevation of 676 meters, featuring steep slopes and natural pathways that lead to its distinctive peak in Sardinia.

The mountain contains evidence of past volcanic activity dating back to the Pleistocene period, with geological formations shaped by ancient eruptions.

The Moseddu necropolis near the mountain includes eighteen underground tombs known as domus de janas, representing prehistoric burial practices.

Visitors can access the summit through an equipped trail system that connects to a viewing platform offering panoramic views of the region.

The mountain contains deposits of cheremulite, a mineral specific to this location, though extraction activities have now ceased completely.
