What to expect
Discover the magic of the Caltagirone countryside through a relaxing trek at Contrada Selvaggio.At an altitude of 500 meters above sea level on the Erei Mountains, enjoy spectacular views from Mount Etna to the sea, crossing the plains of Catania and Gela. This area, rich in history and landscape-archaeological constraints, preserves traces of ancient Bronze Age settlements. Immerse yourself in the scents of wild nature and cultivated fields that tell of centuries of work and traditions, right up to after World War II.The walk is easy and pleasant; among the cultivated fields, your guide will introduce you to Sicilian herbs and rich biodiversity. Explore rock outcroppings, caves, tombs, and stones expertly carved over the centuries, and even visit an ancient millstone carved into the rock.
