Rother Wanderführer Sizilien und Liparische Inseln 61 Touren (6.A 2019)

Sicily - an exciting island full of fascinating contrasts. The staggered mountains of the Nordkette peak in the mountains up to 2000 meters above the sea, Etna even rises to 3300 meters in the clouds and well into the summer the ice cooled here under lava ash. Inland, scorching heat and raging mountain streams can be found in karst undulating hills, ending in white gorge-like gorges that lead to white dream beaches. For hikers, the island offers a varied hiking area all year round: the Rother hiking guide "Sicily" presents 58 varied tours.

The choices range from simple beach walks to challenging mountain hikes. It passes through remote nature reserves, to ancient places, to beaches on the turquoise sea and to the Aeolian Islands along the north coast of Sicily. Between the lake and the mountain climate, the island visitor will find a hiking area here for the whole year.

Each tour is presented with reliable directions, a detailed hiking map with a marked route and a meaningful elevation profile. The clear tour information gives hints to exact starting point, requirement, elevation gain and of course numerous tips for stops and places worth seeing.
