Beautiful spot with a view of the church

At the parking lot, it's better to take a switchback up to the "Erice Parcheggio Panoramico." The circular trail starts there. (The previous section isn't really a trail.)

The church is dedicated to St. Mary of the Assumption (Maria SS. Assunta) and dates back to the first half of the 14th century, when King Frederick III of Aragon stayed in Erice during the War of the Vespers (1314) against the Anjou of Naples.

Up on Monte Erice, where the wind still carries stories that elsewhere have long since vanished, lies a place that defies time. The alleys of Erice seem like something out of a fairy tale no one imagined – it simply grew there. Like the ivy on the walls, the lavender in the window niches, the scent of almonds and sea salt that hangs in the air. And then you step out of the shadow of the old stones – and suddenly there is nothing but vastness. The Bay of Trapani stretches out like a promise. The sea lies there, deep blue and still, as if it had been smoothed out especially for this moment. Further in the distance, the Aegadian Islands loom as if they had simply fallen from the sky. Down below, on the plain: olive groves, salt pans, a shimmering mosaic of light and history. Those who embrace this view are not simply standing on a mountain – they are standing above things. Between heaven and earth, between yesterday and now. Maybe you'll only stay here for ten minutes. Maybe an hour. Maybe you'll never leave completely.

The hiking trail to Bonagio has reopened. It now runs alongside the old city walls.

Beautiful medieval town, high above Trapani.

The municipality of Erice, which stands 751 metres above sea level on the mountain of the same name, offers the best views and plenty of history to touch. Today, it is mainly the well-preserved medieval old town that points to a long history. GEO
