Take a nature walk at Zingaro

Paradis niché entre terre et mer, la réserve naturelle de Zingaro dévoile ses paysages découpés par les vagues et le vent le long de la côte entre Palerme et Tripani. Créée pour protéger la zone de la construction d’une route, on la parcourt à pied ou à cheval dans un silence apaisant, entrecoupé par les cris des oiseaux qui y ont élu domicile… The Zingaro nature reserve is a paradise of diverse landscapes carved by the waves and the wind, nestled between land and sea along the coast between Palermo and Tripani. Created to protect a road construction area, the nature reserve can be visited on foot or on horseback. Visitors can enjoy a peaceful silence broken only by the cries of its resident birds...

Take in the view from the hill town of Monreale

Dominating the Golden Valley, Monreale is one of the most beautiful places around Palermo. Located a few kilometres to the south-west of the capital, this small town is home to the Santa Maria Nuova Cathedral. This famous Duomo, known for its superb cloister and its mosaics, was built in the 12th century in pure Arab-Norman style. It epitomises the turbulent history of the largest island in the Mediterranean.
