Sicilia, the island in the sun, is home to Heavenly beaches, majestic mountains and Europe's greatest natural wonder, Mount Etna.Sicily is a place unlike any other in Italy.
The apartment is situated just outside Piedimonte Etneo on the north eastern slopes of the famous volcano Mount Etna and overlooks the Fogliarino valley. Ideally situated, it sits in the countryside but is in between the Mountain and the Sea. A perfect holiday to enjoy the clear blue sea and sunbathing or for enjoying mountain walks or skiing.There are two ski areas on Etna. The northern one ends in Linguaglossa and the southern resort is above Nicolosi.
The northern side can be reached by the Highway A18 Linguaglossa and Piano Provenzana (altitude 1900 m.).
You can also visit the Etna Natural Park with its numerous natural footpaths with graded levels of difficulties.
Golf:
Il Picciolo Golf Club
Il Picciolo is the oldest course in Sicily and has played host to a number of international tournaments, including Ladies’ European Tour events. There can be very few courses in the world that can boast a smoking volcano as a backdrop – but Il Picciolo is one, laid out as it is in a stunning location on the slopes of Mount Etna. The proximity to Etna and its regular eruptions provides the unusual hazard of lava floes on many of the holes and, with trees and vineyards also constantly in play, there is a premium on accurate driving. As a result the course is more challenging than its relatively modest length (5,800 metres) might suggest. For many golfers the biggest challenge may well be keeping their mind on the golf and away from the scenery.
