Pianta di Leccio

4.8(319 reviews)

About

Pianta di Leccio (dialettale Ilice), a local business on Sicily, is an attraction set in Zafferana Etnea, within the Metropolitan city of Catania. The site takes its name from the holm oak, known in local dialect as ilice, and stands as a natural landmark in the town. First-time visitors should expect a natural landmark rather than a built attraction, with the tree itself as the focal point.

The venue has earned a 4.8 out of 5 rating across 319 reviews, a strong record for an attraction of this kind. Three photos document the site and its surroundings. Its position near Catania places it within reach of Taormina and Syracuse, while Palermo, Cefalù, Agrigento, Trapani and Marsala lie further afield across the island.

Zafferana Etnea sits at 95019 in the Metropolitan city of Catania, on the eastern side of Sicily. The address places the attraction within the town's administrative area, in the province that includes Catania.

Sicily's climate is Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters, and the busiest period runs from June to September. Italian island cooking is built around seafood, handmade pasta, olive oil and local wines, so meals during a visit can reflect those traditions. Flights, ferries and hydrofoils connect the island with the Italian mainland, and Italian serves as the everyday language across Sicily.
