Highlights
A real bike experience to discover the Nature Reserve of Monte Pellegrino cycling along the tracks of the mountain on our brand-new e-MTBs. The ascent will take place along the "old roads" used by pilgrims and devotees on the Feast of the Patron Saint of the city of Palermo. You will appreciate the history of the Mountain and visit the sacred cave (formerly, the place of worship of the Phoenician goddess Tanith,nowadays embedded in the Sanctuary dedicated to Santa Rosalia). We will continue visiting the plateau, where the II WW' s anti-aircraft batteries were positioned and that, nowadays, offers a breath-taking panoramic view on the coast and the Gulf of Palermo; we will later proceed along the off-road tracks at the top of the mountain designed for MTBs enthusiasts. A stop will be planned to let you refresh and taste local street food specialties of the city. At the end of the excursion, we will reach the city cycling on the panoramic paved road and admiring stunning views.
