A canyon of tombs, legends and river pools.
Pantalica is one of the most fascinating places in Sicily: a gorge where over five thousand tombs were carved into the cliffs between the 13th and 7th centuries BC. We follow the old railway line along the river Anapo, now a trail through plane trees and oleanders.
Along the way we visit the Anaktoron, the ruins of a prince’s palace, and stop for a swim in the clear pools of the river.
Pantalica mixes archaeology and nature like no other place: walk among prehistoric tombs and swim in a river a few minutes later.
Meet the guide and walk down into the valley.
See the tombs up close and the cave chapels used in the Middle Ages.
Picnic and swim in the river pools.
Climb to the ruins of the prince’s palace before returning.
