Beautiful but in April the road was difficult for us because of the clay soil. Thick placards stuck to our mountain boots. Probably less of a problem in drier weather.

Milena is perhaps one of the archaeological sites that you can cross while walking along the Magna Via Francigena. In fact, in recent years numerous funerary settlements of Sican princes have been found. It's also a good spot to stop and stock up on food and water.

Beautiful sanctuary with an imposing facade dedicated to the Madonna dei Miracoli, patroness of the city venerated on 8 and 15 September each year.

In the Platani valley there are beautiful, wide dirt roads, hilly panoramas and a splendid view of Monte San Paolino near Sutera.

Right on the side of the road, the small body of water of Lake Regaleali can be glimpsed among the thick vegetation.
