An excursion for nature lovers
Another itinerary for those who love nature and the beauties that our territory: impossible not to let yourself be carried away by the suggestive views of the Alcantara Gorges, a breathtaking Sicilian natural canyon.
During the route that will take you to your destination you will have the privilege of admiring a beautiful panorama made in Sicily, characterized by those citrus groves, famous all over the world for the colors, scents and flavors they can offer, from an expanse of olive groves and numerous grazing herds. A naturalistic tour to appreciate a classic Sicilian glimpse up close.
Once you arrive at your destination you will have the opportunity, using modern multimedia installations, to receive information on the Botanical and Geological Park that you will meet before proceeding to the gorges. At this point you can choose between two paths, the simplest one that allows you to reach the river through an elevator, or the more tiring but decidedly more exciting one that will accompany you to the banks of the Alcantara river through a suggestive passage surrounded by nature.
This last path will allow you to totally immerse yourself in the uncontaminated nature of the park, assimilating its perfectly distributed geometric shapes, and becoming aware of the almost infinite power of mother nature.
We finally arrive at the banks of Alcantara River, in summer, it is possible to immerse yourself in the waters of the river which, someone would call icy, a river path where the water undergoes a natural purification, visually showing an incredible transparent color.
