Cammini incrociati, Italian for “crossed paths”. The Riserva Naturale dello Zingaro in Sicily is a testament to the beauty of untouched nature. In 1980, this stretch of coastline was threatened by a road that would have cut through the landscape, linking two of the island’s growing tourist destinations. Three thousand people walked it in protest, side by side. Their footsteps became a statement. The road was never built. Today, we walk the same paths they fought to protect.
Mountains falling into the Mediterranean. Turquoise coves emerging like secrets. Old houses hidden among olive trees. A coastal trail where cars are forbidden, leaving only the sound of footsteps, the sea and the wind. A place shaped by paths that crossed. And what if our paths had never crossed?
