Tourist Itineraries
Big agricultural
Center for the
production of Bronte
pistachio, lies the
western slopes Etna
in the upper Valley
of the Simeto river,
embracing a
strikingly diverse
territory, almost a
natural beauty
characterized by a
succession of
singles so much
different crops such
as citrus,
olive, fìchi
d'ìndia,
almonds,
chestnuts,
hazels and
vineyards,
pears and
pistachio trees,
the latter right at
ease on those lava
rocks that are
prohibitive for each
other vegetation.
The farm provides,
moreover, a mountain
hut at an altitude
of 1100 m to make
walking or riding in
contact with nature
and immersed in the
woods of the Etna
