네이처 리저브로 진가로 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

The entire national park is permanently closed due to devastating forest fires in autumn 2025! The entrance is guarded; no entry is possible.

Must visit. Unspoiled place, beautiful beaches. I recommend walking shoes and lots of water in summer!

The entrance from the South to the Riserva Naturale dello Zingaro is guaranteed by a car and camper parking lot (small ones...), ticket office and small refreshment point where you can make the last refueling before entering the reserve. After the ticket office you will no longer find toilets and points of purchase of food or drinks so make sure you do it before starting the excursion. The point of no return is physically identified by an unfinished tunnel that is a symbol of the history of this nature reserve. In fact, in detail it is a symbol of the civil protest that about 3000 people started in 1980 preventing the start of the road connection works between Scopello and San Vito Lo Capo. Thanks to this peaceful rebellion, the process of establishing the first nature reserve of the Sicily Region was set in motion. Some photos that I post describe its history.

Long enchanting, uncontaminated. Definitely to be reached with comfortable shoes and plenty of water in tow during the summer period.

The hike is completely overcrowded, and you're charged twice. You pay €9 at the parking lot and then another €5 per person. There's almost no shade anywhere, and the small swimming coves are completely overcrowded.

The toilet is still there in May 2025 and is in good condition.

Not crowded in spring, the brave even go into the sea and swim a lap. The 18 km are strenuous, but doable, and well worth it. A great coastal hike with a beautiful beach.
