MVF_5 CASTRONOVO CAMMARATA

Description: These paths are part of the Magna Via Francigena, the medieval route that crosses Sicily from north to south, connecting Palermo with Agrigento. Following in the footsteps of ancient pilgrims, the trail leads across mountains, valleys, and high plateaus, through wheat fields, vineyards, and centuries-old woods. Travelers pass through historic towns such as Corleone, Prizzi, Sutera, and many more, where Norman churches, stone-paved squares, and living traditions tell a story that spans millennia. Each stage reveals changing scenery: from the hills of the Palermo hinterland to the gentle Agrigento countryside, until the view opens to the blue Mediterranean Sea. This is a journey of spirituality, nature, and culture—ideal for hikers who love contemplation and the warm encounter with local communities. Welcoming accommodations, authentic flavors, and Sicily’s legendary hospitality make this route one of the most captivating ways to experience the island.
