There's been a lot of unseasonal heavy rain in Sicilly so far this year- hence they might have found the river crossings much deeper than expected!
I'm flying out to Sicilly on Wednesday this week to visit some relatives in the mountains. Sicilly has great offroad potential (even 'on-road' can be dodgy in places!). I'm not hiring a car this time round as we're only there for a week. Next visit I intend to borrow or hire a 4x4 to access some of the remoter mountain tracks.
Thanks to the original poster for the link by the way- never found that website before.

Just got back from my visit to Sicilly. Offroading apears to be very a popular sport (and also neccessary for access!) on the Island. A convoy of 60 offroaders came past where I was staying at the weekend. There were a surprising number of Land Rovers amongst them (I was expecting more Japanese vehicles) and also a lot of strange Fiat (ex military?) 4x4's I'd never seen before.
As far as I can gather there are no problems with access in Sicilly- if you can find a track that goes where you want to go then follow it! As usual in these places- locals will take a Fiat Uno up the roughest of tracks- surprising how far you can get a 4x2!
Next visit I'll definately be hiring or borrowing a jeep! Some of the mountain tracks looked great and went on for many miles too.
Property prices also look temptingly cheap away from the coast too. Once offroading is banned in the UK maybe I'll buy a house there.......
