"La Bella Italia" Stage 5 Nicolosi - Taormina

Another climb to Etna - this time to a height of 1900m. A tough day, although the descent from Etna was a hoot. Rest day in Taormina was a great experience as this town is very picturesque and the buildings have a unique charm. There is a Greek theatre ruin in the town and this is still used for performances on special occassions. YouTube link La Bella Italia Stage 5 Garmin Connect link LBI Stage 5
