Una domenica sui nebrodi in quad
In una domenica d’ottobre tipicamente autunnale ci siamo avventurati in quad alla volta dei laghi presenti nel parco regionale dei nebrodi.
L'escursione di mezza giornata è abbastanza soddisfacente per godersi il parco. Attraversare in quad il bosco è molto piacevole: durante i percorsi ci si imbattuti in bei panorami o ci si ritrova faccia a faccia con gli animali che popolano i monti! Salvo, la nostra guida, è stato accogliente, puntuale e, da attento conoscitore del luogo, ci ha fatto conoscere i punti di forza della zona.
Ottima esperienza da consigliare!
