Highlights
- Mount Etna - An excellent alternative to the summit craters is the Etna excursion at 3,000 meters. The journey starts with a cable car ride up to 2,500 meters. From there, the hike begins towards a lateral crater (Barbagallo at approximately 3,000 meters). You’ll get to see the recent lava flows from 2021 and even venture inside a lava channel. We’ll also visit an effusive vent from the 2002 eruption, then descend along the sandstones to the Montagnola. From this vantage point, you can observe the vast Valle del Bove and, on clear days, enjoy a view that stretches from the Ionian coast to the heart of Sicily. The excursion lasts about 4 to 5 hours.
