excursion to the summit craters at 3345 mt

It starts at 1,900 meters above sea level in the "Rifugio Sapienza" area - Nicolosi Nord. Accompanied by our Alpine and Volcanological Guides, the only professional figures authorized and authorized to accompany them to the volcanoes, we will reach an altitude of 2500 meters via a cable car service. Subsequently, with the help of special off-road buses, we will arrive at an altitude of 2,900 meters. From here the real trek will begin, which among recent lavas (2017), lunar landscapes and suggestive panoramas, will lead us to reach the summit of Etna, at an altitude of about 3,340 meters, where it will be possible to admire the spectacle offered by its 4 craters active with incessant fumaroles, continuous roars and with surprising puffs of ash and steam. The descent will be made on a predominantly sandy bottom that will easily and in an amusing way bring us back to the valley passing through the craters of the most recent eruptions (2002/2003) and other points of volcanic interest up to an altitude of 2,500 meters, from where, through the service of cable car, you will return to the starting point.
