The National park of Madonie

This national park, which is well known for its natural, historical, and artistic contribution to the surrounding territory, is dotted with numerous religious structures, monasteries, hermitages and stone churches, and many of them are isolated aloft the mountain tops. Forgotten along the waterways are mills and old farms, often built on the more ancient remains of Roman buildings; they attest the ability of a culture able to live in perfect harmony with nature. High in the Madonie Mountains nearby, some 20 kilometres away, are several small Sicilian villages that are still untouched by time or money such as San Mauro Castelverde and Pollina. These are perfect day trips to discover these incredible unknown places of Sicily.
