Milioso state-owned equipped area

You will pass characteristic thickets of pine alternating with forest plots of chestnut and oak and you will reach the watershed crest of the Central Peloritani Mountains, where the pipeline line passes.
Continue along the road that winds to the left, almost on the same level curve, and after about two km, still in a densely wooded state-owned area, you will reach the equipped area of ​​Milioso, the destination of our journey. Located on a floor also in a panoramic position under very high old Mediterranean pines, we can spend a day in contact with nature using the various accommodation facilities consisting of wooden benches and tables, fireplaces, fountains and a rustic "haystack type" accommodation. very suggestive circular shape.
This structure throughout the summer is used by scout groups on a trip or intent on attending hiking camps.

Note on Sources

The information on the equipped state-owned areas has as its main source the website of the Regional Forestry Department of Sicily (continuously updated) to which is added a very interesting brochure entitled "The State Equipped Areas in Sicily" of the same department published in 1999 with the Editorial Coordination of the 8th Group - Promotion, Development and Research, editors Agostino Gatto and Valeria Restuccia. Further information was obtained from direct access to the areas and from interviews with experts and operators in the sector.
