Monte Perda Liana, Limestone summit in Ogliastra, Italy.
Description
Monte Perda Liana is a limestone summit in Ogliastra with a cylindrical rock formation rising about 50 meters above a flattened cone-shaped base. The distinctive structure consists of limestone and dolomite rock that stands clearly above the surrounding terrain.
History
The geological formation originated during the Jurassic period when the area lay beneath the sea with marine life thriving there. Fossil remains found in the rock today provide evidence of this ancient underwater world.
Culture
The name 'Perda e Liana' may reference either the smooth rock surface or the strawberry trees found on the slopes. Locals have long identified with these natural features that define the mountain's character.
Practical
A circular hiking trail circles the rock formation and takes about an hour with gradual elevation change. The path is easy to follow and offers changing views of the monolith from different angles during the walk.
Did you know?
The rock formation displays different profiles from various angles along the trail, making each viewpoint reveal a new shape. The pale stone walls contrast sharply with the darker rocks of the surrounding landscape.
