Kartodromo Lascari

On the Tyrrhenian coast of Sicily, in Lascari in the province of Palermo, the Kartodromo Lascari runs an outdoor track a short drive from Cefalù. The site sits in the Madonie coastal area, in a Mediterranean setting typical of the region: Mediterranean scrub, citrus groves and the early heights rising towards the Madonie Park. It is used by Palermo locals for outings with friends and by Cefalù holiday-makers looking for a motorsport break between a beach day and a mountain village visit.

Trackside, the outdoor format offers a rhythmic layout suited to a range of skill levels, in the coastal setting typical of the Madonie. Several engine sizes are available, from beginner karts for kids to punchier versions for regulars used to timed sessions. Conditions follow the Sicilian Mediterranean climate: drier and faster in summer, sometimes windy on scirocco days. The site welcomes family taster sessions, kids' birthday parties, stag and hen groups and corporate events from the Palermo area.

Lascari is five minutes from Cefalù, one hour from Palermo and an hour and a half from Messina. The region offers plenty more to see: Cefalù and its Arab-Norman Cathedral (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), La Rocca di Cefalù (panoramic view), Cefalù beach, the Madonie Park and its villages (Castelbuono, Polizzi Generosa, Petralia), or a side trip to Palermo and its Arab-Norman monuments UNESCO or the Aeolian Islands from Milazzo. Karting near Cefalù is a family option for Tyrrhenian coast holiday-makers between a beach day and a Cathedral visit.
