My favorite place in Sicily. Beautiful mountains, lots of interesting places. In winter you can ski here. In the summer, walking in the mountains, riding a bike, great on motorbikes. Lots of interesting accommodation. Accommodations are often also with a swimming pool. I recommend visiting local restaurants. The people here are kind, accommodation is not expensive... They cook with quality ingredients. A lot of meat, vegetables, pasta and mushrooms are eaten here.

We did an all day tour with Tusatrophy Excursions who we can recommend highly. Seeing the Madonie was an absolute highlight of our visit to Sicily

Madonie Mountains presents one of the most suggestive landscapes in Sicily, a small geological world that must be seen and enjoyed unhurriedly. It is also one of the famous mountain eco-systems of the Mediterranean Basin due to the rich diversity of fauna and the considerable interest in its vegetation. The massif of Pizzo Carbonara (a huge block of limestone rock) stands as highest altitude of this range (1979 m) and the second highest of the island, after Muncibeḍḍu (3344m). I really liked this area, not too crowded and bordered by very picturesque villages (Castelbuono, Collesano, Isnello etc.)
