What we will do
The appointment is at 9 a.m. in Finale di Pollina, in the province of Palermo. We will be welcomed by an expert guide who will lead us through dirt tracks and enchanting landscapes. After handing over the bike and helmet (included), the excursion will begin.
Riding our e-MTB, a mountain bike with assisted pedalling, we will head towards the Serra Daino Reserve located within the Madonie Park and reach the village of Pollina at an altitude of 1,000 metres. This small municipality, perched atop a cliff, is home to a Greek theatre that is only apparently ancient, as it dates back to 1979. From here you have a breathtaking view of the entire surrounding area, which is lost among mountains, sea and villages.
Back on the bike, we will visit the village of Pollina with its uphill paved streets, historic buildings, churches and squares. Finally, we will cycle back to our starting point along a beautiful and exciting descent through centuries-old olive groves and citrus orchards. In summer you can also reach the Pollina beach for swimming and sunbathing.
The route is about 25 km, with a slight difference in altitude. The hike takes a total of three and a half hours.
Who it is aimed at
The tour is of medium level and is aimed at everyone over the age of 14. Some cycling experience is necessary.
