If you go clockwise, the crossing of the watercourse on the tunnel of the former railway line is not signposted and dry (fortunately) difficult. Avoid holidays as it is fuller down then.

Fantastically beautiful landscape. The valley is super comfortable to cross on a bike path along an old railway track.

The Valle dell Anapo is not only very beautiful in terms of landscape, but also for around 1800 rock chamber tombs from the period 1200 - 800 BC. known. They were created by the Siculians, who exclusively buried their dead in this way.
Later, some graves were expanded to be used as apartments. There are also a few caves with a small chapel.translated by•October 16, 2023
