At some places bushes overgrow the path. I suggest to wear the long trouses.
Sardinia 😍 ... Many years ago, we were in the north of this beautiful island. We're back, and this time we're traveling along the west coast. We've already completed our first exploration 👀 of our holiday resort, a walk on the beach 👣, and two hikes (one beautiful 😊, the other not so great 🙅♀️). The weather yesterday 👉 was wet 💦. Okay, then we'll just read 📖, plan the next tours 🗺, and play games 🎲🃏. After all, we're prepared for such unpleasant "incidents" 😉 ... But today we're off again 🥾🥾, even though the weather is still forecast to be mixed 🌧☁️. The port city of Tharros, whose ruins 🏛 we visit, was built on the narrow peninsula of Capo San Marco in the 8th century BC. Afterwards, we walk around Capo San Marco near the coast on paths that are sometimes very narrow. We are completely alone; it's windy, but the air is warm. Dark clouds accompany us, but keep their raindrops to themselves 👍, so we stay dry 🙂🙃 ... A truly beautiful combination of a bit of history and lots of nature with magnificent views 😃 ... For those who want to know more 🤓: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tharros
beautiful route with great views refreshing breeze and small beeches
