5-hour quad bike tour among the megaliths of the Argimusco with aperitif

"Look there, Idda!"

That's what they callEtna in Novara di Sicilia, and you can admire it during this five-hour quad bike tour of the Argimusco Plateau. Together with a guide, you'll speed along a route dotted with the imposing wind turbines, the centuries-old trees of the Bosco di Malabotta and the striking megaliths sculpted by the wind.

And you'll see, the return from this 'journey' will be even sweeter with a typical aperitif to end on a high note!

What we will do

The appointment is 30 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Novara di Sicilia (ME), for a briefing with our guide. After getting into our vehicles, we will set off in the direction of San Basilio, a characteristic hamlet of Novara di Sicilia, along the Fontane Rosse road.

From here we will reach the Pale Eoliche Park, where the gigantic turbines will guard us along the way. We will then continue along the Faggita path to enter the suggestive Malabotta Forest, one of the oldest and most mysterious woodland areas in Sicily.

After exploring the forest, we will take the Sentiero dei Patriarchi (Path of the Patriarchs ) and walk to a belvedere from which we can enjoy a spectacular view of Etna, known locally as"Idda" or"Mungibellu", admiring its imposing profile.

Our journey will continue towards the Argimusco Megaliths, fascinating rock formations with enigmatic shapes that have given rise to fascinating legends and theories. We will make a brief stop to explore them up close and discover their secrets.

From here we will take the state road back to our starting point. A tasty aperitif of typical Novara di Sicilia products and an alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink will be waiting for us, perfect to toast after 5 hours on the quad bike.

The experience will last about 5 and a half hours in total , including the aperitif, which we will be able to enjoy at our leisure.
