minutes away from Palermo…. And only a few minutes from
Cefalů. 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.

Slow Travel in the province of Palermo
between the
Valleys of Torto
and San Leonardo |
The quality of Sicilian cuisine
makes Sicily the ideal place to appreciate and discover
flavours and fragrances that seemed forgotten. The

territory promotes a harmonious relationship between life
and the existence of all things.

Slow Travel in
the province of Palermo
between Piana
degli Albanesi
and the Wood of Ficuzza |
It's amazing to think that one
of the most important woods in Sicily is just a few minutes
away from Palermo. In the kingdom of the golden eagle,
between narrow, winding paths, endemic plants of particular
botanical importance flourish. Add to this extraordinarily
beautiful natural setting the fragrances, aromas and
flavours offered by this territory and we are dealing with a
sublime sensual experience.

Slow Travel in
the province of Palermo
in the Valle
del Sosio |
There is a part of the Sicilian
hinterland that only a few people know really well: it is
the Sicily of wide open spaces and pastel colours that still
today has managed to retain its authentic, typical
characteristics. The Valle del Sosio is an area which,
thanks to its isolation, has managed to conserve elements of
genuinity that are interesting for those who want to "explore"
and discover a world that has very little of the modern
about it.

Nature history and wine. |

Slow Travel in
the province of Palermo
in the Valle
dello Jato |
The Valle dello Jato, which is a
harmonious alchemy of wide-open countryside and colourful,
fragrant Mediterranean vegetation, is home to the mysterious
history of the Elymian people, who lived on the slopes of
Monte Jato, and to the invention of a God: wine.

Slow Travel in
the province of Palermo
amongs vines
and barrels |
Farmhouses, agricultural
strongholds, and country residences that have been
transformed into comfortable agriturismos look out over the
green vineyards of this breath-taking scenery. Ancient
territories offering great emotions and excellent wine……this
is the Sicily we are offering. You will visit three
vineyards in the Valle dello Jato and Alto Belice, both in
the Province of Palermo. You will meet expert agronomists
and oenologists who will welcome you in their vineyards and
amongst their barrels and give you wine-tasting courses that
will concentrate on local grape varieties, techniques of
cultivation and production and the innovatory aspects that
have made Sicily one of the most important wine-producing
regions in the world.

Sicily for gourmands. |

|
Slow Travel in
the province of Palermo
with Master
chefs and confectioners |
History, myths, the land and the
people: all these elements have contributed to the
millennial gastronomic traditions of Sicily. Indeed, never
has a territory's cuisine been such a perfect amalgam of
influences from different cultures. What we would like to
propose is an authentic gastronomic holiday….. you will stay
in an agriturismo, go to famous restaurants, have lunch in
historic residences with the owners, watch great chefs work
and, little by little, enter their world in a convivial
atmosphere created so as to allow you to fully comprehend
and appreciate the gastronomic and confectionary traditions
of Sicily.

Slow Travel in
the province of Palermo
Parco delle
Madonie |
Guided trekking in the Parco
Regionale delle Madonie, a nature reserve that is home to
most of Sicily's flora and fauna, and where precious
botanical examples give testimony to the climactic and
geographic evolution of the Mediterranean. One mountain,
almost 2000 metres high, is covered with beech woods,
limestone rock, and sediments of an ancient barrier reef on
which Karstic phenomenon were formed. Then, there are small
towns with artistic treasures, great food and an
extraordinary sense of hospitality.
