The Oliena Sky Trail offers a one-of-a-kind experience in the heart of Sardinia, combining four levels of challenge for mountain running enthusiasts with the uniqueness of the island’s wild nature.
Held on the pristine karst terrain of Supramonte, in the southeastern part of Sardinia, the event has since 2020 combined spectacular views with the opportunity to experience the local culture, made of ancient buildings and scents that recall the history and identity of the area.

The stars of the four challenges offered by the organizers, all starting from the historic center of the small town of Oliena in the province of Nuoro, are the “Sardinian Dolomites” of the Barbagia region. The trails take the participants through the centuries-old woods of the Sardinian mountain range up to the main peaks of Supramonte, their gray rock standing out against the evergreen landscape below. Punta Corrasi (1,463 m) is the high point of multiple routes that feature differing elevation profiles but are all characterized by sweat, effort, emotion, wonderful views, and contagious smiles.

The conditions and elevation gain make the Oliena Sky Trail a real challenge: various top runners, including William Boffelli and Tadei Pivk, have chosen these rocky trails to conclude their racing season.
The mid-October race has become a distinctive event for trail running enthusiasts, who have the opportunity to experience an ever-changing blend of adrenaline, challenge, and gratification.
Since 2024, Karpos has been the main technical partner of this event that brings the sky running community together in the land of Ichnusa.
