Erice is a peaceful and charming town about 800 metres above sea level, with a wonderful medieval atmosphere. Wandering around the town makes you almost feel that you have time traveled to another era.
|
Many of the town’s narrow streets are cobbled, which both suits the character of the local houses and adds to the historical feel of the town.
|
There is a fantastic view of the sea from Erice, both to the north and to the southwest, and on a clear day you can see the salt hills in Trapani. Because of its altitude, Erice also makes a refreshing change on a hot day. The temperature is lower here than down at sea level and in the evenings you might even need to cover up and put on a light jacket and trousers.
