What to expect
Nicolosi
on the way you will see the village of Nicolosi which is situated at the feet of the Volcano Etna. It's from here that in 1669 started a huge eruption which destroyed villages and in part the city of Catania. From Nicolosi to Rifugio Sapienza (1900m a.s.l.) you will see an amazing lunar landscape surrounded by lateral craters, lava flows and a huge basalt mine, everything mixed with a native vegetation
Craters Silvestri of Mount Etna
Crateri Silvestri are the most popular lateral craters we have around Mt. Etna. This eruption started in 1892
Gola Dell'Alcantara
The best moment to have relax admiring the beautiful of nature: a small sandy shore, clean and freezing water, huge basalt columns (which looks like a canyon) as a result of ancient volcanic eruption . Everything surrounded by an amazing spontaneous vegetation and wildlife.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
