From the Riposto seafront, a splendid panorama opens up that embraces both the sea and Etna, with its often snow-capped slopes as a backdrop. From here, the view extends along the Ionian coast, offering suggestive glimpses of the tourist port and the nearby towns of the Riviera dei Ciclopi. At sunset, the contrast between the sky and the volcano creates plays of light that make the atmosphere particularly fascinating, while the waves of the sea complete the picture with their relaxing rhythm.

September 10, 2022,pista ciclabile Torre Arcchirafi Fondachello.
Great for shooting by the sea and in the company of children. The only flaw, the track that stops at a certain point and some ignorant xhe we park on.

Hey Komootlers, today we cycled in the other direction. After a short ride there was a long street market with very cheap goods.
