What did I have to learn again right at the beginning today? When the paved road ends, turn back! No matter how many minutes you might save according to Google Maps or Komoot. Turn back! After the last house, the path disappears into mud – at least in November 😬. Guaranteed!



The tranquility of this extraordinary

Sunshine and a stage under 20 km 🥳. That meant I could take a little more time with my makeup this morning 😄. So, mud-free, I didn't set off until 10 a.m. After five kilometers, it was time for breakfast with a view 😃. Today was mostly downhill, and at times I could already see the sea and, in front

Sutera bathed in sunshine and above the clouds. It was magnificent this morning. I was so busy admiring the view and taking photos that I couldn't tear myself away. I walked all the way downhill to Campofranco, following the road through thick fog. It was exhausting. Luckily, at photo 13, I had another

So, after the first 144 km and a rest day in Cammarata, I continued on to Sutera today. I'm particularly excited about this place, not least because of this YouTube video:



Today I followed the official hiking trail again... and... what can I say: a mud bath

The first four kilometers today were uphill again, just like the last four were downhill yesterday 😬🙈. It was a bit less sweaty though, since "Gino" had already been working his magic on my head 💇‍♂️. So today I'm off to the town with four "a"s in its name 😉. Again, I followed the road and simply

How mystical: my destination was still shrouded in fog this morning. Looking back was worthwhile again today. I didn't regret my decision to follow the "SP48" instead of a potentially muddy track: a completely deserted country road. At kilometer 13, there was a lovely stone bench for a "half-time break

Today my tour began with the descent from Prizzi at almost 1,000 meters. What a magnificent view of this mountain village! It feels like time has stood still here. With one or two exceptions, the hiking trails were excellent today, and even the barking dogs eventually made peace with me—for today, at

The steep climb, past doors that hadn't been knocked on in ages, was rewarded with a fantastic view of Corleone. After yesterday's experience, I decided to run some sections along the SS118 today. The scenery was just as beautiful there, and Zucchero did his best to combat the monotony of those stretches

Today was a real "mud and wind challenge." Luckily, the wind eventually died down. Around kilometer 13, a "predecessor" must have had enough of the mud 😉. Otherwise, it was pure nature today, with a magnificent, wide-open landscape. I passed many abandoned houses and newly built solar parks – what a

After a hearty meal at "Antico Caffeço Soinnato"—the first place in town—and a few rain showers, I was finally able to set off. The first 10 km out of Palermo were obligatory along the main road. Then it was uphill past the homes of oral surgeons and lawyers to Altofonte, which I reached after 18 km
