タオルミーナの峡谷・トップ5

It's completely unclear which point on the river is being referred to here, and what condition the river is in. Consequently, the (repetitive) tips are of little use. In winter, after rain, while descending the path on the western side, which was in a disastrous state (!), I encountered a raging torrent below, making it nearly impossible to reach the entrance of the gorge!

A staircase (€2 per person, payable at the kiosk on the street) leads down to the Gole Dell' Alcantara. The stairs are mostly shaded and not particularly steep.

Beautiful, but depending on the time of day, it can get very crowded. It's best to come in the morning. The cool water of the Alcantara is a relief on hot days 😃

Such a beautiful piece of earth!

This is really a really beautiful spot!!

100 meters after the public parking lot.

Closed. No weather indication. Probably because of not enough people (November). To go down, you would have to pay A LOT of money to a private company. Horrible!

"Hike" is definitely an exaggeration. It is a walking path and at the same time worth seeing. Look for the Communal Entrance if you do not want to take guided tours etc. When buying the entrance ticket, make sure that you buy at least the orange route (6€). The €2 entrance ticket only allows you to access the beach via the stairs. If you are too lazy to walk or have difficulty walking, you can buy a ticket for the elevator to the river. But then you have to take the elevator and are not allowed to use the stairs, even though the price for the elevator is many times higher.
