In the heart of the island of Pantelleria rises Montagna Grande. It reaches a height of 836 meters and can be accessed from the district of Sibà, following a paved road that is uneven in some places due to pine roots lifting the pavement.

The entire area of Montagna Grande is part of the Pantelleria Oriented Nature Reserve, whose creation has allowed the cataloging and marking of numerous ancient footpaths, leading to the discovery of an inland environment unique compared to other Mediterranean islands. From the summit, all the other smaller volcanoes (50 in total on the island) can be seen.

Just before reaching the top, there is a rest area equipped with tables and benches, used for picnics and convivial moments in the open air. From the eastern side, you can admire a panorama that extends over the crater of Monte Gibele and the districts of Khamma and Tracino.
