Its mouth is in the Ionian Sea at Capo Schiso in Giardini-Naxos. Thousands of years ago, a lava flow from Mount Etna blocked the river bed. As the lava cooled down in contact with the water, it solidified into columns. Over time, the river has eroded a channel through these columns, creating the stunning Alcantara Gorges (Gole dell\u2019Alcantara) next to Francavilla di Sicilia. Our adventure begins where the Peloritani mountains end!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"inline_featured_image":false},"categoria-esperienza":[48],"tipologia":[43,46],"class_list":["post-9861","esperienza","type-esperienza","status-publish","hentry","categoria-esperienza-alcantara","tipologia-adventure","tipologia-trekking"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>River trekking excursion at the Alcantara gorges - MrExcursions<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mrexcursions.it\/en\/tours\/river-trekking-excursion-at-the-alcantara-gorges\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"River trekking excursion at the Alcantara gorges - MrExcursions\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Live the adventure with a river trekking excursion at the Alcantara gorges.
