Walking Experiences in Salina

Salina, the most elegant and green, full of vegetation, gardens and vineyards. In a tour of the Aeolian Islands Salina can not be missed.

Three municipalities independent from Lipari, of which I prefer Leni and Rinella, for their Aeolian authenticity. Then Malfa with the elegant restaurants, and Santa Marina Salina for the shopping area and Lingua for the lighthouse and the salty lake which gave the name to the Island.
