A single territory that has three of them in it, from the heights to the sea: the Sican Mountains, the Sican Valleys,
The Mouth of the Platani River.
Everyone has passed through these lands:
Sicans, who migrated in the 12th century from the Iberian Peninsula and left their mysterious tombs with resplendent grave goods rooted in myth.
And then the Elymians and Phoenicians, the Greeks and Romans, the Arabs, the French, the Spanish, whose traces can still be found in the architecture of the villages, the rich cuisine, the language, the lifestyle.
Few places in Sicily, but perhaps few places in the world, are such a dense concentration of history and landscapes.
Sicans to be discovered, tasted, and experienced all year round, thanks to the mild climate and a thousand experiences to be had in every season.
Ancient forests, thermal waters, jewel-villages, abbeys, castles, archaeological areas, mining parks, caves, monasteries.
A varied landscape made up of peaks, plateaus, and hills, running from the interior to the coastline, now wild and rugged, now flat and sandy, open to the blue Mediterranean.
“I do not envy God heaven because I am well satisfied to live in Sicily.”
Frederick II

“Reappearance of the real Sicily.”
Cit: Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa
A unique one that carries with it a varied landscape of peaks, plateaus, and hills, running from the interior to the coastline, now wild and rugged, now flat and sandy, open to the blue Mediterranean.
Ancient forests, thermal waters, jewel-villages, abbeys, castles, archaeological areas, mining parks, caves, monasteries.
And expanses of vineyards, olive trees, wheat, fruits, vegetables. But mostly welcoming people who make every encounter a treasure to take home.
