Cugno Mola and Cavagrande del Cassibile (SR)

Cavagrande del Cassibile is the largest and most impressive canyon in the Iblei area, a place where nature, history, and landscapes intertwine in a unique way. Within the canyon, a rich historical heritage is preserved, including the evocative Villa dei Marchesi di Cugno Mola, located at the end of the valley, a spot of great scenic charm.
According to some historical studies, the pyramidal hill facing the necropolis of Cassibile – known as Cugno Mola – could be identified with the “Akraion Lepas” mentioned by Thucydides in his account of the Peloponnesian War.
The route offers vast and colorful panoramas: from the green of the meadows to the blue of the sea, with views that make the hike an experience of authentic beauty.
A loop trail, perfect for a Sunday in January.
