The Carcallè Streams - Santa Rosalia (RG)

January 29, 2023
In the Carcallè district, the Burramaci and Bafarano streams flow along their namesake canyons before feeding the Irminio river. With their seasonal nature, they have carved their path through the Iblei plateau for centuries, gently and gracefully shaping the white limestone. Starting from Case Mania and crossing a fantastic promontory, we will dive into the Contrada Capo Censo forest park. The location, the canyons, and the streams have created a microclimate that persists year-round, fostering the growth of typical Iblei wild greens. We will continue our walk to reach the entry point of the Irminio at the Santa Rosalia dam, passing over the Bafarano bridge. Climbing up from a valley that falls within a forest track, we will arrive at Contrada Inguanti, near our starting point.
