Duration
4 to 5 hours
Overview
-
Spend a day with us in one of the most fascinating places in the world: Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe and a Unesco heritage site. Our excursion starts from Catania to go up the slopes of the volcano. During the journey we will cross the typical Etna landscapes, rich in history and traditions of which we will tell you.
The first stop on our tour will be a visit to a lava flow cave, with helmets and torches. A unique and fascinating place in the heart of Etna.
Then we will move to one of the most beautiful Etna trails where we will take a pleasant walk among ancient lava flows, volcanic bombs, endemic plants of Etna and extinct side craters.
The last stop will be a visit to the tourist station of Etna north, where the wounds of the last great eruption that seriously affected this side are still present, that of 2002-2003 which went down in history as the perfect eruption.
