Best Mountain Biking Routes to Argimusco Rock Formations

Tips

  • In this area there are numerous rocks of quartz sandstone modeled in a curious and suggestive form. The stones have particular forms, anthropomorphic and zoomorphic, whose nature is to be associated with wind erosion or perhaps with an ancient human intervention

  • Argimusco is a plateau located in Sicily, just north of Etna, approximately on the border between the Nebrodi and Peloritani mountains, and is administratively divided between the municipalities of Montalbano Elicona, Tripi (which stands on the site of ancient Abacaenum) and Roccella Valdemone.
    The plateau is very panoramic as you can admire Etna, the Aeolian Islands, the curious mountains Rocca Salvatesta and Montagna di Vernà, Capo Tindari, Capo Calavà and Capo Milazzo up close. It is part of the Bosco di Malabotta nature reserve.
