Polizzi Generosa is a medieval town located high in the hills of the Madonie whose ancient charm remains intact. The town is still rarely visited by tourists and offers a wonderful insight into the customs and costumes of the local inhabitants of this area. During the summer, numerous events are held for the benefit of local citizens who have emigrated in recent years but who return to the town for their holidays. There are a number of beautiful churches and monuments in the town and a handful of good restaurants. Tourism in the area is now starting to develop and a spa is expected to open next year. Other charming towns of the Madonie including Petralia, Castelbuono, Geraci, Ganci and Sperlinga are located close by. For lovers of trekking, access to numerous hiking trails can be gained near to the house.
