LOCATION
‘I
cedri’ stays at less than one km from the centre of Trecastagni, a nice place
settled on a hill six-hundred meters high, in the ‘Parco dell’Etna’ territory.
From a geographical point of view, Trecastagni takes advantage from a unique
position, mingling the golden sand beaches and the volcanic rocks of the Ionic
sea with the majesty of Etna with its green pineries and its snowing picks,
often flaming because of the lava eruptions.
Moreover this village takes advantage from its lucky location: just 10 minutes
distant from the Highway A18, 20 from Catania, 30 from Taormina, 45 from Messina
and only 1 hour from Siracuse and Enna.
The weather conditions are very pleasant: you have fresh air and little windy
days in the summertime, because of the altitude, and you can find at least 5
degrees less than Catania; the winter is actually milder than the other mountain
zones, thank to the exposure to the sea.
The geographical position, the weather, the quietness and the amazing landscapes
make of Trecastagni the perfect site for a total relaxing vacation, and the
ideal place to go discover the history and nature of the oriental Sicily.
