Gola Su Gorropu · the gorge

A limestone gorge 500 metres deep, walls of sheer rock the height of skyscrapers on both sides — often called Europe's Grand Canyon and not entirely wrongly. The Genna Silana trailhead is the standard route in; a 2-3 hour scramble down, then back up, with the canyon floor opening into pools clear enough to swim in. Bring a packed lunch and serious shoes. A real day's hike, and the antidote to a week on the beach.
