The Madonie Park, a Nature Reserve, Is an Area of Great Natural Beauty
SLOW TRAVEL IN THE PROVINCE OF PA L E R M O Gastronomy and Countryside from the Tyrrhenian Sea to the Madonie Park The Madonie Park, a nature reserve, is an area of great natural beauty and magnificent countryside characterised by a variety of different types of agriculture whose products are the basis for the excellent gastronomic specialities of this mountainous region. 3 days – programme for individuals Prices from € 112.50 DAY 1 Between Cefalù and Finale di Pollina, the road winds up steep slopes dotted with manna ash trees, olive groves and cork oak trees. Little by little wonderful views of the Tyrrhenian coast open up including the beautiful Rocca di Cefalù and the Eolie islands. Pollina, a small medieval urban centre, is dominated by the Torre del Castello dei Ventimiglia, at the foot of which stands the Amphitheatre of Pietrarossa. From here the view over the valley of Castelbuono is absolutely enchanting! In the area between Pollina and Castelbuono, the production of manna, a sugary lymph that seeps out from incisions made in the bark of the ash trees, is still practised today. The manna is wrapped in cloths before being used in pharmaceutical products, cosmetics and confectionary. At the Azienda Agricola “Zabbra”, which specialises in organic farming, it is possible to buy excellent fresh fruit, natural vegetables and you can even taste the famous manna. You’ll soon arrive at Castelbuono, the town of the Ventimiglia family, where you can visit the Castle and its precious artefacts. This lovely town is also home to the most important museum in the Park, named after the naturalist Francesco Minà Palumbo, himself originally from Castelbuono. -
