モンレアーレの絶景の山頂・トップ20

Be careful on the westward ascent! The final 150 meters to the summit are quite steep and very exposed. The terrain is also not ideal, consisting of scree, small stones, tufts of grass, and loose earth, which can lead to falls. Furthermore, the path from this side is almost completely unmarked, and the depression between Rocca Ramusa and Rocca Busambra is completely overgrown, at least in summer. Furthermore, the path to the summit itself from the west is dominated by tall grasses, thistles, and other plants at this time of year. In high temperatures, you should carry at least two liters of water per person and wear a hat. In summer, I recommend spending plenty of time in the depression between Rocca Ramusa and Rocca Busambra because of the thick undergrowth there. I advise inexperienced hikers against the westward ascent.

Pizzo Nicolosi is a massive promontory on which an ancient Roman city stood, useful for controlling the traffic of the surrounding area. Today it is an archaeological site on which studies are slowly being carried out.

Magnificent 360 degree panorama over the whole of western Sicily, especially sunrise and sunset. The ascent and descent can be very challenging.

The mountain rises to 1,156 m, from its top you can enjoy a wide view of the surrounding landscape: to the north stands Montagna Longa (975 m), the municipalities of Partinico and Borgetto. To the west on clear days it is possible to see the Oriented Natural Reserve of the Zingaro, up to the Monti di Trapani. To the east you can see the city of Palermo, the Conca d'Oro, and the Mountains of Palermo.

The highest point of Rocca Busambra, at 1613 meters above sea level. The view is spectacular and recalls that of the much higher continental mountains.

View over the province of Trapani

At the penultimate bend, almost hidden, there is a road to the left that leads up to the top. If you go to the right instead there is the lookout tower

Breathtaking view from Montagna Longa
