The Alcantara Gorges are a remarkable geological formation located in eastern Sicily, Italy. They are a series of basaltic rock canyons carved by the Alcantara River over thousands of years. The gorges are situated between the towns of Castiglione di Sicilia and Motta Camastra, about 20 kilometers from Taormina. The stunning rock formations within the gorges are the result of ancient volcanic activity. The basalt columns and walls showcase unique geometric patterns formed by the cooling and solidification of lava flows from nearby Mount Etna. Over time, the Alcantara River has eroded the basalt, creating deep canyons with crystal-clear waters.
