Description
For the poet Goethe, it was “the most beautiful promontory in the world”;
For the 'Bourbon King', it was the setting of the ideal place to carry out his 'Favorite' activity;
For the people of Palermo, it is a place of pilgrimage to be visited during the 'Acchianata' or simply a destination for leisure.
For us naturalists, Monte Pellegrino has always been a treasure chest concealing a true green treasure... and I'm sure it will also have something to reveal to those who want to 'look beyond.'
From the deepest valley to the vast plateaus at the summit, immersed in nature, history and legend, we will discover the secrets of Palermo's sacred mountain, which is so important that it even inspired modern ecology!
