카스텔라마레 델 골포 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

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.

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.

Beautiful view of Castellammare and its wide gulf and, towards the west, of the Scopello stacks and the Zingaro reserve

Stunning reserve, fantastic beaches!

This road tunnel was intended to be the beginning of a motorway. This construction was prevented by public protests in 1980. This allowed the creation of the nature reserve.
