オーガスタ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

An incredible climb winding through orange groves, with "cycling" graffiti painted on the ground. The climb is narrow, paved with some cracks, and can be done even with a road bike with low gears. Gradients between 8 and 12%.

This beautiful little river is definitely worth a detour. In an arid land like this in the Syracuse area, even a seemingly harmless river can be a source of beauty. The river flows in a protected area and is ideal for a refreshing dip. Next to it is an orange grove that is perhaps abandoned but still unattended. An orange on the riverbank with your legs in the water is definitely worth it!

The square with the church, pure baroque, typical of the whole area, is very beautiful.

Very beautiful panoramic climb.

An entry fee is planned here from summer 2024.

If you are in for an adventurous variation of this climb, you may continue further into the valley, past the entrance to the nature reserve, on a very narrow tarmac road. The climb becomes steep and ends right below the Cappuccino convent in Sortino.

The Valle dell Anapo is not only very beautiful in terms of landscape, but also for around 1800 rock chamber tombs from the period 1200 - 800 BC. known. They were created by the Siculians, who exclusively buried their dead in this way. Later, some graves were expanded to be used as apartments. There are also a few caves with a small chapel.

Sortino (in dialect: 'Sciurtinu' or 'Xutino') is a municipality in the free municipal consortium of Syracuse. The town is located in the Iblei mountains, near the rock necropolis of Pantalica and the Anapo river. The beekeeping tradition of Sortino is so deep-rooted that there is a house museum of traditional beekeeping, which shows the ancient honey production techniques through various historical objects.
