Hotel Ristorante Parco Dell’Etna ★ ★ ★

Province of Catania/Bronte

A small chalet on the north west of Etna, offering excellent cuisine based on mushrooms, asparagus, black pig Nebrodi and pistachio.

Recommended excursions to the ancient Royal Trazzere of Etna to the mountains Makasa (where the last nest of Golden Eagles lay), excavations through the woods of Maletto where you will see the wild and the famous Nebrodi black pig or trace back to the source of the river Simeto; an interesting visit to Maniace (Maniace Castle known as Nelson or Duchy) with its beautiful medieval church, built by Commander George Maniaces in 1163 in memory of the victory over the Saracens obtained in that place.

Is it possible, with prior notice to go hiking, horse riding or mountain biking as well as visit and experience tastings at pistachio processors.

Of particular interest: the real collegio Capizzi and its famous library and art gallery, the Museum of Ancient Civilization, the crib Museum and the Museum of Sicilian carts.

For stays during the period of pistachio Festival (late September first week of October) it is necessary to book in advance.
