Overview

Gesturi is located in the heart of the historical Marmilla region and is home to a community of approximately 1,100 inhabitants. The municipality covers an area of around 4,500 hectares in the south-central part of Sardinia. As part of the province of Sud Sardegna (formerly Medio Campidano), the town represents the authentic rural atmosphere of the island. Its geographic position between the region's larger centers makes it a characteristic destination for travelers wishing to explore traditional Sardinia away from the coastal areas. The settlement is nestled in a hilly landscape known for its geological features and its strategic importance in local history.

Location

The municipality of Gesturi is strategically located within the province of Sud Sardegna. It is situated approximately 60 kilometers north of the Sardinian capital, Cagliari. Regionally, the town lies 21 kilometers northeast of Sanluri and about 39 kilometers northeast of Villacidro. This positioning within the Marmilla region allows for direct access to the characteristic plateaus of the surrounding area. The municipal territory covers a vast area of 45 square kilometers, characterized by the typical topography of the Sardinian hinterland, serving as a link between the Campidano plain and the mountainous zones of the island's interior.
