View of the Bay of Zarbo di Mare

Highlight • Viewpoint

Along the bay there are numerous rocky descents leading to the sea. Once you get through them (and it's not easy), you will be able to take a bath in the warm waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Junction of trails above San Vito Lo Capo

Highlight • Trail

Between the Riserva dello Zingaro and the center of San Vito Lo Capo, this crossroads of paths allows you to reach both Cozzo Mondello (447 meters above sea level) and Monte Monaco (532 meters). From here you can also enjoy a splendid view of the Sicilian sea.

View from Monte Monaco

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are two ways up, from the west and east. I definitely recommend the ascent from the west as you walk in the shade in the morning, and you can then descend either from the east or west.

Personally, I found the west route better even though it is a little shorter and therefore steeper.
