Termasuk tiket masuk

This itinerary explores the highest active area of Mount Etna, Europe’s tallest active volcano, giving direct contact with its ever-changing summit zone. Starting above 1,900 m, you ride authorized 4×4 vehicles to about 2,750 m, then hike across desert-like lava, ash and volcanic bombs from repeated eruptions. The trek is 12–13 km with ≈600 m ascent and a 6 km descent, lasting 5–6 h. Trails climb to around 3,300 m, up to 3,380 m when conditions allow, reaching the rim of one or more of Etna’s four summit craters—North-East, Voragine, Bocca Nuova, South-East. Routes vary daily with gas, wind and ground heat. Guides constantly monitor volcanic and weather conditions to ensure safe views of fumaroles, mineral colors and active craters. Solid fitness and high-altitude hiking experience are essential. Return to the starting point is usually about 13:30–14:30, depending on conditions.
