==Geography==
It includes the Madonie mountain range and some of the highest mountains in Sicily.〔 The park has six mountains that are over and many more that are over . The highest is Pizzo Carbonara〔Landscapes of Sicily: 2001, p8〕 at ,〔 second in height in Sicily only to Mount Etna.〔〔〔
As well as being a nature reserve, the park is an inhabited area with dozens of little villages and small towns, many of which trace their origins to medieval times.〔〔 The park is also home to a number of castles and numerous ancient churches. The wild mountainous slopes are inhabited by roe deer, boar, wildcats and Bonelli's eagles, as well as being a habitat to the rare, nearly-extinct Nebrodi fir tree.〔〔〔Landscapes of Sicily: 2001, p12〕
One of the park's most notable natural features is the extensive forest of beech trees found only at 1500 metres and above. These are the most southerly beech forests in Europe. Lower down, below 1600 metres, there are large forests of holm oak, downy oak and cork oak, and around Castebouono and Pollina the rare manna ash is still farmed. The mountains contain some 1500 species and sub-species of plants, around 60% of all those found in Sicily. These include more than 70 different species of orchid.〔''The Madonie Park'' by Francesco Alaimo〕〔''The Madonie Park Orchids'' by Amdedeo Falci and S. Antoine Giardina.〕
