    Pantalica is one of the most impressive, but at the same time the most difficult to reach, Unesco World Heritage Sites in Sicily. Pantalica is a prehistoric archaeological zone. More precisely, the tomb dates from the late Bronze Age (from the 13th to the 8th century BC) and was one of the most important settlements of the Siculi. Pantalica is famous for the thousands of tombs carved into the steep cliffs of the Anapo Gorge. Apart from the necropolis, the area is also worth a visit because of the beautiful nature reserve. In fact, Pantalica is located in the Anapo Gorge Natural Reserve, a paradise for trekking fans thanks to the many panoramic trails.
