A Goat’s View of Sardinia: New York Times features Sardinia on a 2 page article

On the ruggedly gorgeous coast of the Orosei Gulf, in eastern Sardinia, purple limestone cliffs erupt from the Mediterranean-like high walls of some unconquerable redoubt. Ravines wild with goats tumble onto isolated beaches. On hot days when the sirocco wind blows, the land can smell of wild rosemary and thyme. For all its physical flamboyance, the Orosei (pronounced oh-roh-ZEYE) offers a quieter holiday than the Costa Smeralda (...). About half a dozen remote beaches sit tucked into the limestone folds along the roughly 35 miles of gulf coast, and the customary way to reach many of them is by boat.
The New York Times has dedicated 2 pages in its travel section to hiking and trekking along Sardinia's East Coast, along the Gulf of Orosei. Read the full article from New York Times author Tim Neville here!
