Case Bevacqua – Contrada Mandra del Re – S. P. Mareneve Fornazzo-Citelli-Linguaglossa

From Case Bevacqua (1.013 a.s.l.) it is possible to take a sequence of old inter-farm tracks that facilitate agricultural activities carried out to date up to the border of the State Forestry Property, when the Etna orchards are superseded by larch pine wood. The trail then goes North for a total of 3.9 km on an almost flat route crossing in the final part the Vallone del Salto del Bue: this is an interesting hydro-geological phenomenon, dug by rainwater or by water resulting from melted snow. The trail then reaches the S.P. “Mareneve di Linguaglossa” road, at one sharp hairpin turn beyond which is Monte Fallacca.

Approximately 1,500 m into Hiking Trail no. 728, there is a junction on the left. From here, after 2,200 m on inter-provincial or forest roads, further upstream of the trail described above, it is possible to reachS.P. “Mareneve di Linguaglossa”, after crossing the Contrada Mandra del Re. The difference in altitude is 353 m.
