Ruins of this nuraghe are located on the top of a mountain NE of Cardedu. Nuraghe Trunconi is an example of a tholos nuraghe with a bastion (remains of it are visible at the east). The masonry is of poor quality, close to polygonal cyclopean one. Remains of the tower are heavily overgrown, the walls are best exposed at the North and NE.
Unfortunately, there is no footpath leading to Nuraghe Trunconi. You have to cut your way through very thick bushes covering slopes of the mountain.
