Monte Pellegrino is the sacred mountain of Palermo overlooking the Mondello sea. It is about 609 meters high and it is possible to climb it via an asphalted road, excellent for traveling with road bikes or MTBs and an old road that is used by pilgrims to reach the Sanctuary of Santa Rosalia on foot.

I really enjoyed the bike tour with this company, Cesare was a very friendly and accommodating tour guide and is welcoming like a true palermitano. We started towards Mount Pellegrino, but be warned that it is a challenging tour because of the terrain. I was clearly struggling but Cesare was very nice, offering to change the route and we cycled to Mondello Beach instead. This was delightful and was around 10 KM round trip, but much less challenging terrain. I think that you will not regret Mount Pellegrino if you are an intermediate cyclist who is prepared for 8KM of uphill cycling - it is truly truly beautiful. However, if like me you are less able, I still would highly recommend this company for any of their amazing services. Thank you for a very enjoyable trip.
