Get in

By Bus

Frequent buses run to Palermo and Catania and less frequently to Piazza Armerina. Although it's very close there are only 2 buses or so a day to Caltanissetta. The main bus station is 10 minutes walk from the centre of Enna Alta, but more buses run from Enna Bassa.

By Train

Several trains a day run to Palermo, Catania, Caltanissetta and Agrigento. However, beware, the railway staion is 5km away well below the Enna, with only hourly buses into the centre.
