Welcome to one of the most beautiful areas of all Sicily!

We're going to discover the area between Etna, the well-known volcano that dominates our landscapes as well as our lives since millennia, and the Nebrodi, a suggestive mountainous area that manages to keep its natural beauty, its incredible flora and fauna... almost reaching up to the border with the Madonie mountains.

This audiotour will take you on a journey of discovery of certain villages which are still retaining their medieval side and their ancient traditions; it’s going to be a "slow" journey to rediscover these places, far from the typical mass tourism of Taormina. Get ready to enjoy amazing landscapes as well as magnificent architecture, still heartfelt popular traditions and a mouth-watering cuisine!

This is, after all, the kingdom of the Nebrodi pistachio and black pork; these specialties are just the "tip of an iceberg", though! It's up to you to find out how many more goodness these places have to offer!

So, at this point, we wish you a good tour! You're going to come across the most famous villages, such as Bronte, Randazzo, Maniace, Castiglione, but also the less known like Ucria or Borgo Giuliano!

This tour was created as part of the National Civil Service Project 2020-2021, coordinated by UNPLI Sicilia, with the volunteers of the Pro Loco of Bronte (Francesca Irene Bonaccorso), Maniace (Virginia Bontempo, Paola Melardi), Randazzo (Arianna Alli , Ilenia Cartillone), San Teodoro (Nunziata Virzì).
