Beautiful trail! It's not very popular because it's not a tourist destination, but the passage is very picturesque, thanks in part to the enormous lava flow that runs along the mountain!

Monte Sona is located in the Belpasso area, on the southern slope of Mount Etna, along Provincial Road 92, which leads from Nicolosi to Rifugio Sapienza. It can be reached by driving one kilometer further toward Rifugio Sapienza after the La Nuova Quercia restaurant. Parking is available in the clearing on the left.

mostly ruined castle, great view

Located on a lava plateau overlooking the Simeto river valley, Adrano enjoys renowned agricultural production, including citrus fruits, olives, pistachios and vegetables. The etymology of the name Adrano is derived from the Latin "Adranon," in honor of the god of the same name. The first settlement dates back to 400 BC. and was founded by Dionysius I near an ancient temple dedicated to this divinity. In 344 BC, it was the scene of the famous Battle of Adranon between Leontini and Corinthians. Subsequently, it was subjected to Roman rule, going through a long period of decline. During the period of Arab domination, it became a powerful feudal village and under the Norman dynasty it transformed into a county of considerable importance, known as Adernò. Among the notable architectural structures to visit are the Norman Mother Church, the monastery of Santa Lucia and the church of Sant'Agostino, which houses an inlaid marble altar. Among the buildings of importance, the 14th century Catalan castle stands out, now used as an archaeological museum, and the Bellini theater from 1846, built in Art Nouveau style.
