Riserva Naturale Orientata Monte Cofano

In spring this place is full of flowers and it is very green. Not overcrowded, in fact I met maybe up to 10 people on my way to the peak. If you don’t want to climb you can choose trail near the cost which is terrific.

Recently reopened after a long closure, this park is well worth a visit and hiking through if you have the time. There is a parking area at the entrance and staff with a map who can explain the various routes. Further to the beaches, there are plenty of hidden spots to go swimming off the rocks.

Best beaches in the world. I don’t think I will ever see bluer waters or happier hikers. Truly the best nature Italy has to offer. A huge shoutout to all the Sicilians that prioritized conservation and saved this land to be enjoyed by the global community.

This place is so beautiful! The hikes you can do here, the nature you'll see it's just magnificent. We hiked to the mountain top twice and I hiked around Monte Cofano 4 times and every single time I fell more in love it. I think it's one of the most beautiful mountains. The closeness to the sea already makes it already so special!

Excellent hike! Took path from a secluded parking spot up to top of mountain. Bouldering, rope climb, wildflowers and many, many steps later, the view is rewarding! Took small path back down the mountain and walked the perimeter path by the cliffs and sea. Goegeous views, historic markers! Rewarded at the end with wandering belled cattle right at our car!

Incredible place. There are many different walks to chose, we did the one to get to the top of the mountain. The view from there is stunning. It takes 1.5 hours to walk up the mountain but the reward is the best view on the whole gulf of Macari and cornino. Absolutely stunning. Highly recommended

Beautiful untouched area, saved by conservationists from a major road development. A few Euros to enter but lots of walking and secluded beaches. Nice tiny museum of the local area.. Well worth a visit

Very pretty area for hiking. In June 2019 some of the coastal paths were closed, but we still had a good amount of path to explore.

Impressive views! And very attractive tracking routes.

Beautiful place! Nice beaches! I'd like to go there again. Zingaro is better but here is calmer.

Wonderful hiking, fantastic little beaches.

We spend great time there, with lot of spectacular views and pretty local, brown cows...

Amazing view! You have to watch out for cows and bulls, but it's worth not giving up and getting to the top!

Challenging (on a hot day) but rewarding hike to the top

Astonishing nature preserve.

Absolutely stunning scenery and crystal clear waters along the coast. Can't wait to visit this place again

Great place

beautiful naturalistic place, ideal for both a hike or a swim

Wow ❤🇮🇹

Love that it's away from the tourists and gives a sense of serenity
