It starts from via admiral Staiti n101 (fire brigade barracks), at the port. In 10 minutes we will reach the first salt mine, the "Maria Stella", where we will admire the first mill built here in Trapani. We proceed to the second "Chiusicella" salt pan, where we will explain how the cultivation of integral salt takes place, we will be able to see flamingos, herons, knights of Italy, etc. The last salt pan will allow us to enter an ancient mill of over 600 years, now a museum, to discover how the various tools were collected, how they worked, what role the salt played in this place and the differences between past and present. We will taste the crystal of salt and its most prized part the fleur de sel, natural and flavored with orange, lemon, rosemary and oregano ... and to conclude we will carry out "the path of the salt maker" a suggestive walk inside the salting tanks .
