Montevago, in the heart of the Belìce Valley, is a destination that tells the story of resilience, memory, and rebirth in contemporary Sicily. Located in the hills between Agrigento, Trapani, and Palermo, the village offers open views of the Belìce countryside, among vineyards, olive groves, and traditional crops, in an authentic and peaceful setting, ideal for slow and conscious tourism.
The village is deeply linked to its recent history: the 1968 Belìce earthquake left an indelible mark on the area, giving rise to a reconstruction process that today represents an important example of cultural and identity reflection. The ruins of the old village are a place of memory of great symbolic and historical value, which can be visited as a testimony to the past and a warning for future generations.
Montevago is also known for its natural thermal baths, fed by sulfur springs, which were already appreciated in Roman times. The thermal area represents a resource of great potential for wellness tourism and for experiences related to health and relaxation, set in a natural context that is still largely unspoiled by human activity.
The municipal territory is part of the Menfi DOC and is an integral part of the food and wine tradition of Belìce, with quality products related to wine, extra virgin olive oil, and typical local products. Events, festivals, and religious celebrations mark the annual calendar, offering visitors the opportunity to get in touch with the local culture.
