Etna Tour
The highest active volcano in Europe (10.000 ft), mt Etna is a real must in a Tour of Sicily.
The excursion we run will offer you an impressive sequence of different sceneries, the typical Mediterranean vegetation of citrus groves down below, gradually shifting to vineyards and chestnut woods in the lower slopes, up to the top level, where vegetation leaves space to the dreadful lava fields and the dazzling snow.
Many little towns crowning the volcano add more interest to the tour. Surprisingly the Etna district, despite the frequent eruptions is the most intensively inhabited area in the whole island.
We reach the highest point of the panoramic road, (6.000 ft) where you can observe the spectacular lava front of August 2001 and 2003-4 and visit some of the extinct craters (Crateri Silvestri).
Along the way we can observe the developments of the most important recent eruptions (1971, 1983, 1992 2001, 2003-2004).
No matter which season you elect, make sure you wear warm clothes and comfortable shoes.
If you like, you may arrange with your driver a stop in a winery, or a traditional sanctuary, or in a typical Etna lava stone village to taste some of the delicious local specialties as granita, cannoli, almond pastries, Sicilian pizzas etc
