Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The walk starts near the old village of Francavilla di Sicilia. Don't expect to get very near to the river. There are two places where the "Gurne" are visible: from the foot bridge over the Alcanatara near the barrier, and another nice view near the ruins of a bridge over the river. The nicest part of the walk is the climb on the mountain flank, where you get a good view over the valley of the Alcantara. You can get a free map of the trail at the tourist office of Francavilla, but it's outdated: the trail circles all the way back to the old village, whereas the map stops at mark 9.

The trail goes around a mountain peak and by the river and it takes almost 2,5 with kids and photos. Easy walking except the steeper part where the path wasn't that beaten and full of weeds. By the way recommended for the families

Walking along the Gurne D’Alcantara is definitely worth your effort. Stunning views, nice pick nick area’s and a challenging but not too challenging walk make this a walk to remember! I highly recommend it!

We tracked for about 30-40 mins only to find all the access to the river and rockpools has been closed off. It looked lovely, and the scenery is worth a walk alone. But with hot small kids desperate for a dip in the river, it would have been nice if they told you there was no access at the start of the walk rather than at the end!

This is so worthy a visit. Take a walk in the beautiful nature around it and take a swim in the really cold pools. Beautiful waterfalls around and the rocks surrounding it. The water is totally clear but really cold

Path through plants in quit place with only small lizzards with me. Starts at town end and ends near the bigger supermarket. The path takes about an hour to walk and is easily done.

C'è un'area attrezzata dove potersi fermare per mangiare? Tipo tavoli, panchine, cestini per la spazzatura, barbecue?
Written 26 April 2016
Si c'e' una'area attrezzata compresi di gazebo e barbacue ma non e' indicata. Si trova a circa 200m dall'accesso dalla statale. Attenta perche' i tavoli sono solo 2 e se ci vai tipo il primo maggio potresti trovarli occupati. Comunque io ho preferito fare un pic nic sulla riva del fiume vicino la presa enel. Bellissimo
