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
