Stranded in Sardinia, you can hardly miss the highest point on the island: Punta La Marmora. Sitting at an elevation of 1,834 metres, it is the tallest summit in Sardinia. Named after the geographer Alberto Ferrero della Marmora, the peak is located within the communal territories of Desulo and Arzana.
Punta La Marmora is situated just east of the approximate center of Sardinia. Its summit offers a panoramic view of the entire island, where most of the coastline and all the surrounding peaks are visible on a clear day.
The mountain belongs to the Nuoro province in the Barbagia mountain area of inner Sardinia.
