Monte Linas, Mountain peak in South Sardinia, Italy.
Monte Linas is a mountain in southern Sardinia made up of several granite peaks, including Perda de sa Mesa, Monte Lisone, and Punta San Miali. The landscape shows rocky slopes and open terrain that create different walking routes connecting the various summits.
The mountain region has been known since ancient times for its zinc and lead deposits, which led to mining activity that shaped local development. These resources became important to the region's economy over many centuries.
Shepherds still use these slopes for grazing, following patterns that connect them to the landscape in ways that go back many generations. Walking here, you can see how people have shaped and lived on this mountain over time.
Marked trails run through the mountain and connect the different peaks together for hikers. Spring and fall bring the most pleasant weather for walking here.
The rocks here are made of large granite blocks that stand out for their color and shape. These stone formations are something geologists notice and make the landscape look quite different from nearby areas.
