"La rocca" is the rock that defends Cefalu. You can hike on top of it and have a 360 view over the whole coastline. It's the best view you can get after that from the property you chose for your holiday ;)

Full of history, The Rock of Cefalu is a place to visit at any cost! Surrounded by nature, it marks the history of this beautiful city, and offers breathtaking views across the coast and the Aeolian Islands!

LOCATION Cefalù, Italy Location of La Rocca on map© Mapbox© OpenStreetMap contributors Looming over Cefalù, this imposing rocky crag was once the site of an Arab citadel, superseded in 1061 by the Norman castle whose ruins still crown the summit. To reach the top, follow signs for Tempio di Diana, taking Vicolo Saraceni off Corso Ruggero or Via Giuseppe Fiore off Piazza Garibaldi. The 30- to 45-minute route climbs the Salita Saraceni, a winding staircase, through three tiers of city walls before emerging onto rock-strewn upland slopes with spectacular coastal views.

Stunning views of Cefalù town and the coastline from high above. It;s a hike, so wear sensible shoes, take water and avoid the midday heat!

The rocky hill overlooking the town of Cefalù. We suggest you to climb it up to the top to enjoy a wonderful view over Cefalù, the hills and the sea. Visit also the "Temple of Diana" a nice megalithic temple and the huge medieval fortifications. It is highly recommended to climb up wearing sneakers, a hat and plenty of water.
