Monte Rasu is a mountain in the Goceano's range, in the central west Sardinia, Italy. Its summit, called Punta Manna di Monte Rasu (1,259 m), is the highest peak in the province of Sassari.
The mount is surrounded by the woods of Foresta Burgos, Sos Niberos and Badde Salighes, characterized for the presence of thousand-year trees of holly and taxus baccata, and woods of downy oaks, chestnuts and holm oaks.
