Nuoro is the home town of Nobel laureate Grazia Deledda. From here you enter the Barbagia, the most traditional part of the island: the murals of Orgosolo and the masked Mamuthones of Mamoiada.
To the east the Supramonte drops to the sea: boats leave Cala Gonone for Cala Luna, while on foot you can cross the Su Gorropu gorge, one of Europe's deepest canyons.
