The rest of the cycle tour will be characterized by continuous entrances and exits on dirt roads and secondary roads, surrounded by landscapes forgotten by time and rich in Sicilian colors, constantly watched by our beloved Etna.
For the return we will use part of the embankment of the Simeto river, where we will be able to admire the fauna and the vegetation that surrounds its waters.
