What to do in Sicily

Oriented Nature Reserve "Torre Salsa"

A wet, cultivated area stretches all the way to the top of dazzling cliffs of the whitest limestone marl. At their foot, the beach plunges into a sea so turquoise and clear it moves one to tears.

Corpus Christi Artistic Carpet

Colorful sawdust, salt and sand in the summer of Calatafimi

Monte Monaco, in San Vito lo Capo

It is part of the Trapani Mountains and owes its name to the figure of a kneeling monk that can be seen from the ancient tuna fishery. A protected area, it is fantastic for hiking and climbing.

Umberto I Square in Palazzo Adriano

A magical place, Piazza Umberto I, in the Arbëreshe village of Palazzo Adriano ... that will remain forever immortalized in Sicilian director Giuseppe Tornatore's Oscar-winning masterpiece, Nuovo Cinema Paradiso

Sabucina

A necropolis, an ancient settlement, a sacred area and surprising artifacts: history from the Sicans to the Romans in Sabucina.

Cork Grove of Niscemi

A forest of cork oaks is located southeast of Niscemi. It is one of the few remaining vestiges of the original forests in the area. The oldest oak tree in Europe lives here.

Mussomeli Castle

Also called Manfredonico Castle, it almost blends in with the rocky peak from which it dominates the surroundings. Its rooms tell the ancient history of the Kingdom of Sicily, and quite a few legends.

Wetland Geloi

A recent project brought the Geloi wetland in the Gela Plain back to life, and within a few years there are already many animals choosing it as a stop on their migrations.

The Castle of Pietrarossa

So old that no one knows who built it, so dilapidated that you can barely distinguish it from the rock on which it rests, were it not for those red bricks that give it its name.
