Milo, Municipality in Metropolitan City of Catania, Italy
Located at an elevation of 720 meters on Mount Etna, Milo features extensive chestnut and pine forests across its mountainous terrain.
Duke Giovanni d'Aragona established Milo in 1340, and the settlement remained part of the Mascali village administration until gaining independence in 1815.
The Church of Sant'Andrea, constructed in the 17th century, contains three naves and incorporates the original colors of Giovanni d'Aragona in its design.
Visitors can reach Milo from Catania by following the SP road through San Giovanni La Punta and Zafferana Etnea or taking AST buses from Catania.
The Vinimilo Sagra dei Vini dell'Etna festival in September celebrates the local wine production with tastings and exhibitions of regional products.
