In the heart of the Val di Noto, precisely in the territory of Noto, there is a real natural paradise, the Valley of the Gods. One of the most beautiful quarries in the Iblei Mountains, with a landscape in continuous transformation, where the incessant flow of the Santa Chiara River gives life to beautiful lakes and waterfalls, with its waters reflecting incredible shades of blue and blue.

Watertrekking along this river is an incredible experience, with our experienced guides you can do it safely, visiting this really unique place. As you go into it, the river leads through an increasingly lush and dense vegetation, which recalls an exotic landscape, the rock walls rise imposing transforming from a small quarry to a real canyon.

WaterTrekking Valley of the Gods

Along the way you have the extraordinary opportunity to enter the rocky wall along an ancient aqueduct that once fed a mill. Back in the river, the more impetuous water continues to dig the limestone rock, creating a series of lakes and waterfalls that follow each other more marked. The river bed is strongly shaped, giving life to a wonderful gorge, where two spectacular waterfalls, embedded between the rocks, offer a breathtaking spectacle.

The view is revealed in a continuous change of breathtaking scenery: from the narrow gorge, the gaze opens again, revealing the power of the waters that rush into a spectacular waterfall that feeds a large lake with crystal clear waters, creating a fascinating contrast between the force of the flow and the serenity of the lake that flows from it. This experience offers the opportunity to come into deep contact with nature and bring home indelible memories. However, it is not an adventure for everyone: Only those who are ready to live an intense and engaging experience can appreciate its true essence.
