Meilogu is a geographical, cultural and natural region located in the northern part of Sardinia, in the province of Sassari, which can be considered a sub-region of Logudoro. It borders to the north with the Sardinian sub-regions of Sassarese, to the east of Montacuto, to the south of the Goceano and Marghine and to the west of the Planargia. Bonorva is the main municipality in the territory.

== Morphology == The territory of Meilogu is mainly volcanic and the cinder cones make it unique in the context of a geologically ancient land, so much so that the Italian soldier and naturalist Alberto La Marmora had called it Sardinian Auvergne. Its soils are therefore among the most fertile of the island.
