カストロレアーレ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

ペロリタニ山脈で最も設備の整ったオアシスの一つ

A church where you can admire Byzantine, Arab, Sicilian, and Norman architecture. The exterior features exposed brick. The interior columns are made of granite similar to that of the ancient theater in Taormina. They are likely excavated columns from the Byzantine era. The column abacus is made of lava stone.

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!

Excellent place to camp, with equipped area and running water.

Particularly worth seeing during Carnival time when the Maiorchino cheese is rolled through the village: https://www.comunedinovaradisicilia.me.it/il-torneo-del-maiorchino.html

Beautiful forest refuge, located in the municipality of Santa Lucia del Mela. Hobs and running water. Great for a nice picnic.
