Alcantara Gorges and Francavilla di Sicilia

Excursion in Alcantara

Languages: English, Franch, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian

Gole dell’Alcantara and Francavilla di Sicilia (full day):

The formation of the gorge is derivated from a small volcano of Mt. Etna woke and poured forth enormous quantities of lava. Upon arrival we descent on foot and we will discover a spectacular view of the whole at the entrance of the gorge. The beautiful stone cliffs tower forms pentagonal and hexagonal prisms, irregular shapes which interplay with the light, creating forms both graceful and monstrous. A natural botanical reserve is located in the park: your guide, which is an expert in botanic, will give you all the informations. Afterwards we continue the explorations of Francavilla di Sicilia where a violent battle took place between the Spaniards and Austrians. Here we will visit the Capucin Monastery founded in the 16C.
