Explore one of Pantelleria's most intriguing trails, where the beauty of nature, the wonders of geology and the richness of history seamlessly blend in a 3-kilometre hike. The adventure starts amidst an evergreen forest, enveloped by pines, holm oaks and strawberry trees. The aroma of rosemary and myrtle serves as your guide through this verdant landscape. The trail leads you on an upward trek to a summit standing at 836 meters, from where you are treated to awe-inspiring views of the island.
As you traverse this path, take a moment to pause at the Grotta dei Briganti. This lava tunnel holds historical significance as it served as a refuge for Pantelleria's band of brigands in 1863. Your journey continues with a descent into the mystical Bosco degli Elfi. Here, wild vegetation intertwines with remnants of ancient pastoral life, creating an atmosphere that feels frozen in time.
This hike is ideal for those seeking an immersive experience in unspoiled nature, steeped in fascinating history and punctuated by unforgettable vistas.
