Foliage in the Nebrodi

From November 15th to 17th, 2024
November is the perfect time to immerse yourself in the evocative autumn landscapes of the Parco dei Nebrodi, where beech forests and mountain lakes are painted in stunning shades of orange. This natural spectacle is made possible by the rich variety of flora, offering a kaleidoscope of yellow, orange, red, purple, and brown hues.
We have chosen this weekend to offer you the best possible foliage experience, set in an environment teeming with biodiversity, breathtaking views, and fascinating wildlife. During our trek, you will have the chance to admire rare plants, walk through yew forests, and enjoy panoramic vistas that will leave you speechless.
The weekend begins on Friday afternoon with a visit to the Castello Medievale di Sperlinga, a fortress steeped in history. For this experience, we will be staying in Capizzi, hosted by our friends Piro and Cettina, in a typical Nebrodi village.
