Highlights
- Piazzale Rifugio Sapienza - From your accommodation, we will embark on our journey to Etna! Our first stop is Zafferana, where we’ll learn about the lava flow that once threatened the town, followed by a relaxing visit to a farm for a tasting of typical Etna products like oil, wine, and honey. From a stunning panoramic viewpoint, we’ll marvel at the majestic Valle del Bove, the enormous caldera of the volcano, from above. We’ll then head to the southern side of the volcano to explore one of Etna’s most beautiful lava flow caves, which we can safely visit with helmets and torches provided by our guide. Finally, we’ll reach the Silvestri Craters at an altitude of 2,000m, featuring 5 extinct craters resembling a lunar landscape, where we can walk around and admire the sea, the Gulf, and the city of Catania illuminated by the sunset. This is a one-of-a-kind experience! You’ll uncover the secrets and geological features of the volcano with our local Nature Guides, who hold degrees in Geological Sciences. This unique, easy, and short yet captivating experience allows you to relax and quickly discover the most beautiful spots of Europe’s highest active volcano!
