Top 10 Things to do in Catania, Sicily! 🇮🇹
With an endless amount of things to do and see, Catania truly offers something for everyone! Here are our Top 10 things to do in Catania!
Having been rocked by numerous earthquakes and volcanic eruptions over the centuries, Catania has undergone a drastic medley of changes, and as a result, opened up the opportunity for its beautifully distinct character to develop and flourish. The second-largest city in Sicily is much more than a base for the legendary volcano that shadows it, bustling streets, mouth-watering cuisine, vibrant parks, churches, monuments, shops, and nightlife, with an endless amount of things to do and see, Catania truly offers something for everyone!

TOP 3 Circular HIKES in the DOLOMITES Italy
Download the GPX tracks of the hikes!
If you want to support the channel and my adventures :-)
Dolomites are one of my favourite mountain areas, and the best way to discover them is HIKING!
In this video I'm giving you 3 advices about circular hikes (or round trips, loops, whatever..) to do in the Dolomites.
NOTE: you need to have experience with hiking to complete these trails.
The difficulty is increasing, the first one is relatively simple (but still 900m elevation gain which is no joke), the second one is intermediate and the third one is VERY HARD. I highly suggest you to split the itinerary in two days and stopping at one of the huts you find on the trail (booking required).
Croda da Lago Circuit:
Starting from the road from Cortina D'Ampezzo and Passo Giau (Ponte Ru Curto), you will follow the wonderful Val Formin till Forcella Rossa, then you will cross the Mondeval Plateau to reach Forcella Ambrizzola, Lago Federa, and back to the parking lot. Amazing views of Pelmo, Antelao, Tofane, Sorapis and Croda da Lago of course.
Tre Cime/Croda dei Toni:
Starting from Val Fiscalina (after Moso, Pustertal) you will turn right at rifugio fondovalle, and after a couple hours you will reach Rifugio Locatelli, in front of the spectacular Tre Cime di Lavaredo (Drei Zinnen). Then you will pass below Monte Paterno and will make it to Rifugio Pian di Cengia, then Rifugio Zsigmondy with an incredible view of Croda dei Toni, and then back to Val Fiscalina.
Monte Civetta Circuit:
Starting from Palafavera, Val di Zoldo, You will reach Malga Pioda and then Rifugio Coldai. You will turn left and follow the amazing Sentiero Tivan, with Civetta on your right and Val di Zoldo (amazing Pelmo) on the left. The trail goes up to Forcella delle Sasse, and then goes down till Rifugio Vazzoler. You will keep hiking around Civetta and you will make it to Rifugio Tissi. Spectacular spot to spend the night. Then following the Western face of civetta you will reach Lago Coldai and then finish the loop hiking back down to Palafavera.

The Castle of the Baroness of Poira - Paternò - Sicily to Discover - Trekking in Sicily
We are in Sicily, in the hinterland of Paternò, in the province of Catania. The ruins of the Castle of the Baroness of Poira rise on a spectacular hill overlooking a vast hilly area characterized by barren gullies and wide valleys. The area, sparsely populated, is very suggestive, immersed as it is in the silence of its boundless spaces. The Simeto, the longest river in Sicily, is not far away. Etna, to the north, looms majestically.
The castle of Poira is actually not a real castle but an ancient fortified farm, built on previous buildings of probable medieval origin or perhaps even more ancient, as evidenced by the archaeological excavations that have brought to light a Greek necropolis and Roman structures .
The remains of the defensive walls, the cisterns, the ancient chapel have the desolate charm of abandonment and history that here borders on the crime story. In fact, at the end of the nineteenth century the place was the scene of an assault by a band of brigands from distant (for the time!) Palermo. The criminals entered the fortress thanks to the complicity of the baron’s campiere and kidnapped the Baron and his family inside for a whole day. It is estimated that the loot of the raid was very rich (around one million euros today). But the story does not end with the escape of the bandits. All the members of the gang, except one, were in fact exterminated in an ambush in the mountains of Palermo shortly after. The action was attributed to a rival group but it is believed that the principal was the Baron himself with the connivance of the Bourbon government.
Beyond the history, the place is certainly worth a visit. It is a piece of authentic Sicily, far from the most famous tourist destinations and little known even by the locals. Its scenic beauty makes it perfect for a day outdoors, preferably in Autumn or Spring when Nature gives its best. To reach the Castle you have to take the road that connects Paternò to Centuripe, leaving it at the old roadman's house and following a branch that climbs towards the hills. The road is not in excellent condition but with a little patience and prudence you can reach the district called Poira.
Shot in 2019 with an Olympus OM-D EM5 MKII and a Mavic air, this short video was edited using I-Movie. The photos are by Francesca Sparatore who at the time used a Nikon D3100.
