Full Day Hike in the Madonie Park

On this excursion, we will reach some of the most beautiful places of the Carbonara Massif. We will traverse through a huge range of habitats, including woods of evergreens, mountain pastures rich in rare plants, karst dolines, woods of beech trees (the southernmost ones in Europe) and an ancient wood of giant holly trees (Piano Pomo).

If you’re interested in the Madonie’s unique giant hollies, you might like to also consider our dedicated Madonie Hike to Piano Pomo’s Giant Hollies.

We will enjoy many beautiful panoramic viewpoints as our guides know all of the best spots along the trail. On clear days, we will be able to see as far as Mount Etna. Along the trail – which is not much frequented by hikers – herds of fallow deer, raptors, corvids, and butterflies can often be seen.

Where and when to meet?

You will meet your guide in Castelbuono (Province of Palermo) at 9:00 am.
If you aren’t sure where this is, don’t worry, as you will be provided with a map indicating the meeting point when you book. Each guest will then reach the starting point of the trail in their own vehicle.
