Experience Enna: from the stone walls of the castle to the light of the Belvedere

Some journeys begin before you even arrive. The road climbs towards Enna, the landscape opens up and the Castello di Lombardia comes into view above the city. Then it’s time for a walk through the streets of the centre, a stop to sample the local cuisine and a visit to Belvedere Marconi, where you can pause to admire Sicily from above. If you visit Enna during an event, having a car lets you decide when to leave and where to go next. With TDS Rent, you can plan the day around what you want to see, at your own pace. 

How to get to Enna

Enna is connected to Sicily’s road network via the A19 motorway. The following distances to the city are approximate: 

• Catania Fontanarossa Airport → Enna: approximately 75 km; allow 1 hour to 1 hour and 20 minutes by car.
• Palermo Falcone e Borsellino Airport → Enna: approximately 161 km; allow 2 hours to 2 hours and 30 minutes by car.

These travel times are estimates: traffic, roadworks and weather may affect them. Allow a few extra minutes to park and start your visit.

Getting around between the castle and the Belvedere

Use your car to reach Enna and explore the surrounding area, then discover the centre on foot. On busier days, consider Pisciotto car park and city bus route 4 to Piazza Garibaldi. Check the bus timetable and monument opening hours before you set off. 

Why rent a car to visit Enna

A car makes it easy to combine the castle, the Belvedere and other stops in one trip. Leave the airport according to your own schedule, bring everything you need and decide how long to spend at each place. If you are attending an event, you can choose when to return without planning every journey around transport connections.

Compared with taking several taxis, you know the cost of your rental before you set off. Compared with public transport, you have more freedom to visit places outside the city.

Tips from the TDS Rent team

• When to leave: set off in the morning if you are travelling from Catania or Palermo. On event days, allow extra time for traffic and parking.
• Where to park: the city’s tourism portal recommends Pisciotto as a park-and-ride option. Check whether bus route 4 is running on the day of your visit. 
• A mistake to avoid: before entering the castle into your satnav, decide where to leave your car. The centre is best explored on foot.
