San Filippo Waterfall & Valle dei Mulini Hike — Catania International
🌿💦 San Filippo Waterfall & Valle dei Mulini — Catania International
📅 Saturday 14 November
Join us for an authentic day in nature with Anja, our certified nature guide, exploring a lesser-known corner of the Messina area, away from the usual tourist trails!
💦 The highlight of our day will be the San Filippo Waterfall, tucked among lush vegetation in the beautiful Valle dei Mulini.
To reach it, we’ll walk approximately 4–5 km through shaded woodland, among century-old poplar trees, small streams and the valley’s historic mills.
Along the way, Anja will introduce us to the area’s history and ancient traditions connected to water and grain milling. It’s a chance to slow down, discover a different side of Sicily and share an experience beyond a typical sightseeing trip. There will also be a little surprise included!
