8의 라두사가지 명소 & 주요 장소

A very suggestive place, a route that is simple in sections with two very challenging climbs and an extremely steep descent.

A castle in a state of abandonment but located in a wonderful environment, surrounded by greenery and of great visual impact.

Lake Ogliastro is a Sicilian artificial basin located between the provinces of Enna and Catania, mainly in the territory of Aidone and Ramacca. Created for irrigation purposes thanks to the dam on the Gornalunga river, it has a rich ecosystem that attracts various bird species. A majolica panel by Andrea Parini has decorated one of its banks since 1974, and the lake has been recognized as a Site of Community Interest by the European Union.

Valguarnera is a town rich in history, probably populated since the archaic era. Hilly landscapes, rich cultural heritage and fascinating cuisine. Worth a visit.

The Castle of Gresti dates back to the 14th century and unfortunately today it is in a state of semi-abandonment. The Castle stands on the suggestive Pietratagliata: a quartzarenite cliff that stands out in the valley perpendicularly to the Gresti river. The cliff is so vertical to give the impression of being a single, gigantic stone cut by a supernatural hand.

Here the ruins of the Benedictine dormitory dedicated to San Giovanni Evangelista, built on an ancient settlement dating back to the Greek era, are still clearly visible. The monastery, which represents the last settlement on Monte Rossomanno, remained active until 1850. The site was then abandoned following the killing of the last hermit in an attempted robbery that took place in that year. Since then, the church and convent have fallen into a total state of decay and ruin (so you have to pay attention if you want to visit them from the inside)
