Full description

Set off on a wonderful excursion to Mount Etna. You will set off in the afternoon and slowly, crossing unique landscapes, you will reach a belvedere from which you can admire the sunset whose warm colours will stand out against the barren landscape.

You will ascend to altitude on board an off-road vehicle and along the way you will be entertained by an expert guide who will tell you secrets and curiosities about Etna Park and the volcano.

With this activity you will visit areas of ancient explosive activity and hornitos, openings in the crust that were formed by a lava flow. Get ready for adventure!

What we will do

We will meet at 15:30 in Catania. We will board a 4x4 jeep and head towards theentrance to Etna Park to begin the half-day guided tour. As we reach the various stops, the guide will entertain us by telling us secrets and curiosities about the history of Europe's highest active volcano.

We will travel along dirt roads to points from which we will be able to see breathtaking views of the Bove Valley and the dormant craters. We will also explore an ancient lava cave with torches to discover solidified lava slabs and stalactites.

We will then reach Zafferana Etnea, a small village on the slopes of Mount Etna where we will be able to taste wine, liqueurs, honey and local products. Finally, we can admire a spectacular sunset from one of the many belvederes in the area. The colours of the sunset will illuminate the lunar landscape to create one of the most evocative spectacles we will ever see.

The excursion will end after 5 hours with the return to Catania at around 20:30.
