March 20, 2025,Caccamo - Monte San Calogero

A perfect vantage point at a good 1300 meters directly above sea level. However, I would recommend not starting from Caccamo like I did, as this saves you several kilometers of paved road and a considerable amount of elevation gain. The return route via Monte Rotondo also had its pitfalls with fences. Despite everything, I enjoyed it.
