Capitale économique de la Sicile, elle a su vivre au rythme des humeurs de l’Etna. Détruite sept fois par les éruptions du volcan et par des tremblements de terre, elle fut totalement reconstruite en 1169 et en 1693 d’après le style architectural de l’époque baroque
Accommodation
Le plus grand volcan d’Europe est situé sur la côte orientale de la Sicile. Il est en activité permanente depuis la nuit des temps et reste un des volcans les plus actif au monde. Les témoignages de sa puissance sont nombreux sur l’île.
Accommodation
Lors de l’ascension, on est frappé par le paysage lunaire et désertique qui témoigne de ses colères passées. Coulées de lave, tapis de cendres, panache de fumée, soufre. Une indescriptible sensation nous submerge. On a beau savoir que le magma coule sous nos pieds, on reste fasciné par le spectacle et on espère secrètement une imprévisible éruption. Une expérience unique sur le toit de la Méditerranée!
Accommodation
Flâner quelques heures dans son dédale de ruelles étroites et nous sommes émerveillés par ce mélange des genres: l’histoire est passée par là et les influences se bousculent… Ce quartier contraste avec l’effervescence du reste de la ville. Ici, peu de voiture et une ambiance paisible.
Quartier arabe de Syracuse
Levés à l’aube, nous partons à la découverte du quartier Arabe: un quartier populaire et avec beaucoup de charme. Cette balade matinale aux premières lumières du jour a été un vrai bonheur. Une Italie comme on l’aime: belle et authentique.
L’Oreille de Denys (en italien « Orecchio di Dionisio »). L’endroit est magnifique et nous sommes accueillis par les chants d’une chorale. L’acoustique y est hallucinante! Mais encore beaucoup de monde et il faut attendre plusieurs minutes et être très réactif pour prendre une photo.
Nous reprenons la route direction Agrigente et la vallée des temples. En chemin, nous en avons profité pour traverser les villages perchés de Noto et Ragusa.
Accommodation
Accommodation
Située à une dizaine de kilomètres à l’ouest d’Agrigente, cette falaise calcaire d’un blanc éclatant surplombe une mer turquoise avec comme toile de fond un ciel azur… Après une journée de route la veille, Nous sommes juste ravis de profiter d’une journée au soleil, et de notre première baignade. Un vrai régal!
Notre promenade Antique continue. Direction la belle et charmante Sélinonte: une des plus importantes cités grecques. Aujourd’hui elle n’est plus que ruines et les vestiges du parc archéologique témoignent de son histoire flamboyante qui nous renvoie dans l’Antiquité.
Le site comprend une importante acropole fortifiée qui surplombe la mer. Cinq temples plus ou moins bien conservés la domine.
Accommodation
Au levé du jour, nous prenons la route vers les Salines de Trapani. Au port de Marsala, les lumières sont magnifiques!
A une quinzaine de minutes en bateau depuis la saline, cette petite île est l’une des plus anciennes colonies phéniciennes de Sicile. Fouillée et mise en valeur par son propriétaire anglais Joseph Wittaker, ce site complète les visites des temples grecs. Comptez environ 2/3h pour en faire le tour et approfondir vos connaissances de l’histoire de la Sicile.
Les Salines de Trapani forment une réserve protégée d’environ 1000 hectares de marais salants. Leur exploitation remonterait à l’époque des Phéniciens. Pour les découvrir, vous pouvez soit assister à la récolte du sel soit les parcourir en vélo.
Perché à plus de 900 mètre d’altitude, le Castello di Venere (château de Vénus) est un bastion normand qui offre une vue à 360° sur la Sicile occidentale: de San Vito Lo Capo jusqu’aux îles Égades.
Ce matin direction la réserve de Zingaro, première réserve naturelle de Sicile. Elle s’étend sur 7 km, du charmant village de Scopello à l’est, jusqu’à San Vito Lo Capo à l’ouest. Véritable paradis pour les amateurs de randonnée, elle offre de nombreux itinéraires permettant d’explorer ses moindres recoins.
Accommodation
Accès: La randonnée est accessible depuis le petit village de Scopello ou bien de San Vito Lo Capo.
Temps: prévoyez une journée, la randonnée fait environ 14km aller/retour. Si vous compter faire des pauses photos ou baignades prévoyez large.
Difficulté: Facile
Prix : 5 € par personne.
Ouverture : Accès à partir de 7h du matin
Accommodation
Situé à quelques kilomètres de Trapani et de Scopello, le majestueux temple dorique de Ségeste se dresse dans un environnement champêtre d’une beauté exceptionnelle.
flâner l’après-midi dans ses ruelles pavées, de découvrir sa magnifique cathédrale normande, son petit port de pêche et ses remparts. Le temps étant maussade nous ne sommes pas montés sur le rocher.
Accommodation
L’ascension du Stromboli se fait obligatoirement avec un guide, il ne faut donc pas s’attendre à être seul. On retrouve le nôtre à l’agence où nous avions fait la confirmation le matin. Ils vérifient notre équipement (chaussures, frontale, veste), nous fournissent un casque, et puis on nous demande d’attendre sur la place de l’église de San Bartolo
Le village en contrebas et la petite île de Strombolicchio sont magnifiques avec les reflets des nuages sur la mer.
La pente est abrupte, le sentier est fait de cendres avec quelques roches. Le brouillard s’invite à la balade. On ne voit presque rien à plus de 1 mètre. Interdiction formelle de s’arrêter où de perdre de vue la personne qui est devant nous.
Il faut savoir que vous pourrez rebrousser chemin jusqu’à 500 mètres d’altitude. Des guides y sont postés pour vous aider à redescendre. Au delà, plus de salut! Il faut aller au bout des 926 mètres de dénivelé!
De retour à Milazzo vers 15h, nous prenons la route vers Taormina. La ville étant bondée à notre arrivée, nous décidons de découvrir un peu plus haut le village perché de Castelmolla. Nous avons adoré l’atmosphère calme et paisible qui y régnait. Ses ruelles pavées, ses petites maisons anciennes, un vrai havre de paix qui tranche avec la cohue de Taormina et de ses touristes… La vue au sommet du village vaut à elle seule le détour!

Accommodation
Si vous avez un peu de temps, vous pouvez faire une escale à Isola Bella: la plus belle plage de Taormine. Cette plage de galets, enserrée aux pieds de la ville, s’étend face à l’île du même nom. Compte-tenu du monde déjà présent sur la plage, nous avons fait l’impasse sur la balade insulaire et nous sommes contenter de l’admirer de haut : loin de la foule.
– L’île est reliée à la terre ferme par une étroite bande de plage, qui disparaît et apparaît au gré des marées alors n’oubliez pas de vous renseigner avant d’y aller.
– Allez-y tôt car la plage est vite bondée
Les gorges de l’Alcantara. Situées à 24 km de Taormine, elles ont été formées par la rencontre de la lave du cratère Moio et du fleuve Alcantara lors d’une éruption de l’Etna.
Le premier est signalé par une pancarte et un grand parking qui vous permettra de garer facilement votre voiture. Vous pourrez descendre jusqu’aux gorges en ascenseur. On vous proposera de participer à une visite guidée en groupe avec de grandes bottes pour ne pas vous mouiller. La classe! ? Ou faire du Canyonning. Prix de l’entrée hors visite: 8€.
Le second, que nous avons pris, est l’accès communal qui se situe à quelques dizaines de mètres de l’entrée privée. Garez votre voiture sur le bord de la route ou un plus loin près des habitations et descendez les escaliers. Vous arriverez en quelques minutes à l’entrée des gorges… gratuitement. A bon entendeur!
