Beautiful foliage in the autumn period

With a guide, you can interpret the possible roles of each rock in the ancestors' rites of passage. Spectacular views, including of Mount Etna, not only from the highest rock with its "pool," but also from walking through the fields of ferns (they were a beautiful green in August 2025).

The Bay of Marinello

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.

The rocky pyramid of Rocca di Novara ("Matterhorn of Sicily") seems inaccessible...as a landmark, it can even be seen from Mount Etna! This rocky promontory has a well-maintained trail (adequately marked with red dots), making it never too difficult to climb. (Caution: Surefootedness, a head for heights, and good weather are essential!!) From the summit plateau (large metal cross with the silhouette of Christ), there is a magnificent view of the coast, the mountain villages in the hinterland of Milazzo, and the Peloritani Mountains. The starting point is a picnic area on the SS185 (which will likely be impassable from the south for some time to come due to a landslide). There are a few parking spaces along the roadside; for off-road vehicles, you can also drive up to the first bend of the picnic area. A fantastic mountain experience - and afterwards, head to the café in Novara d. Sicily -> Bar S. Niecola!

Extensive sandy beaches with several lakes against the backdrop of coastal cliffs. Fascinating views of the mountain range around Tindari in the west with the pilgrimage church perched on top. Beautiful views of the Aeolian Islands, especially Stromboli with its smoking volcano.
