The Acqua Rocca Trail takes its name from a seasonal waterfall that forms in winter and spring, shaping the basaltic rocks over time. Even in summer, the trail offers spectacular views of the Valle del Bove, the summit craters and the Ionian coast.

It is a very smooth basalt wall, about 40 meters high, where you can try your hand at climbing. An easy path allows you to go around the wall and reach the crest of the Valle del Bove, where, if the weather permits, there is a magnificent view of the summit craters and the valley below.

Hiking

Trail done just today
In some sections before arriving on the wooden bridge there is very lush vegetation and the path is difficult to locate, otherwise it is really worth doing
I stopped at the beech tree also because I had the dog in tow and knowing the remaining path overlooking the Bove valley was not exactly easy, I preferred to give up.
