What to see in Erice and in Agro Ericino: a mixture of tradition and untouched nature.

Erice and Agro Ericino

The origins of Erice are guarded from fog and time. In 2014 it received the “red flag” because it was awarded as one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. Walking through the medieval streets which lead on the top of Mount San Giuliano the tourist is able to see one of the most marvelous views of Trapani. Erice is beautiful in any way and the best way to have a feeling of the town is by getting lost in its many glimpses, in its Castle, in its ancient churches, convents, artisan workshops (with ceramic works, typical desserts, carpets), pinewoods and gardens. On the other hand, you can open your mind and view by looking at the amazing Egadi Islands, Stagnone Island, the salt pans and Trapani’s field which narrate its story and ancient origins.

 

Erice belongs to Agro Ericino, an area rich in history and tradition, located on the western side of Sicily up to the Comino di Custonaci Bay. It is a hilly area and full of art, history, culture, surrounded by a natural landscaped with unique characteristics. Agro Ericino’s provinces are worth a visit because of their typical cuisine, scents and Mediterranean colours and also for their incredible interest in nature and in their cultural and historical value. Segesta, Buseto Palazzolo, Custonaci and Valderice are definitely worth a stop. In this area you can have a glimpse to the top of Pianto di Romano where the Battle of the Thousand was fought and where the second biggest marble basin in Europe is located. Let yourself be enchanted by Agro Ericino.
