C O L O U R P A L E T T E / Basalt Columns in Sicily

Visiting the 'Gole dell'Alcantara' geological park in Sicily, was an exciting and unbelievable adventure; getting amazed by nature's immensity and perfection. Is one of the most interesting and spectacular places to visit because of its contrasts of geological formations of basalt columns, waterfalls and land consisting of citrus and olive groves, pastures and forests. You get consumed by nature and its surroundings.
