Set out on an exciting excursion to discover the northern side of Mount Etna, the highest and most active volcano in Europe. Depart comfortably by coach from Taormina and enjoy a scenic one-hour drive accompanied by a professional multilingual guide. Along the way, you will learn fascinating details about the volcano’s history, geology, and natural environment while admiring the changing landscape that surrounds Etna. The route takes you through lush citrus groves, vineyards, and chestnut and pine forests, revealing the incredible variety of vegetation that thrives on the fertile volcanic slopes. Upon arrival at Piano Provenzana, located at about one thousand nine hundred meters above sea level, you will be surrounded by breathtaking views of lava fields and volcanic formations that tell the story of Etna’s power and beauty.
You will have around three hours of free time to explore the area at your own pace, taking a gentle trek to discover the unique terrain and natural wonders of this UNESCO World Heritage site. For those who wish to venture higher, there is the option to reach the summit area, currently open up to two thousand nine hundred meters, by taking a four-by-four minibus available on-site for an additional fee. As you ascend, the air becomes cooler and the landscape more dramatic, offering a rare opportunity to experience the volcano up close. After this unforgettable adventure, you will return to Taormina in the afternoon filled with memories of stunning landscapes and the raw majesty of one of the world’s greatest natural wonders.
