노바라 디 시칠리아‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪3‬개의 산 정상

This place is always open and is a stop on the famous Path of the Patriarchs. Basic trekking equipment is recommended.

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.

Spectacular and panoramic peak to the east of Rocca Novara. From this site you can admire the aforementioned Rocca, Etna and the Aeolian Islands.

Unfortunately recently, with the windy days of the past few days (June 2023) the Christ present on the cross placed at the top was torn away by the fury of the winds, which the inhabitants say had a speed of up to 180 km.h, falling to the ground where it still lies. (update) has been restored

Piano Margi is a green area of about 3 hectares with an artificial lake surrounded by benches, tables and fire points.
