ミジルメーリのおすすめMTBライド

Panoramic point

Well sheltered, it is located near the docks of the large ferries

Overall, the area is not very inviting. If you really want to see cruise ships, you've come to the right place. Otherwise, to put it mildly, it's not a particularly charming area. PS: the vast majority of the pictures have nothing to do with the cruise terminal and show areas that are sometimes many kilometers away.

There is a fantastic view of the sea towards Termini Imeres or, on the other side, towards Palermo. The stone pyramid that commemorates the presence and heroic deeds of General Giuseppe La Masa and the Garibaldi's Thousand. The monument was built on the initiative of Salvatore Cappello, a follower of Garibaldi. The construction work was carried out by Giavan Battista Filippo Basile, a former architect of the Teatro Massimo in Palermo. The pyramid has a triangular base and measures 12 meters on each side. It is 25 meters high and was once crowned with a star of Italy, but later fitted with a lightning rod. On the façade there are various panels and inscriptions that commemorate the military deeds and the expulsion of the Bourbons. The coats of arms of Palermo, Sicily and the House of Savoy can also be seen. The monument was inaugurated on April 4, 1882, but Garibaldi, who was ill in Sicily at the time, was unable to attend the ceremony. However, he visited the monument on April 13 before leaving the island. Garibaldi died in Caprera on June 2 of the same year.

Ficuzza, a hamlet of Corleone, is a small center that clustered around the hunting lodge commissioned by Ferdinand IV of Bourbon in 1803. All the activity of the village takes place around the open space in front of the "palace". From here you can follow various paths - really well maintained - which branch off within the Bosco di Ficuzza Reserve

From this point you arrive directly at Ficuzza (dirt road). From the start after about 500m you will find the path on the left that leads to Pulpito del Re.

Incredible view over almost all of Palermo and you can admire all the mountains that surround it! Beautiful

A small pond. An oasis for the animals. Lots of birds and wild boar tracks.
