Experience an unforgettable hike on the northern slopes of Mount Etna, guided by a professional local expert who will lead you through one of the most fascinating volcanic landscapes in Europe. This tour from Taormina focuses on the impressive extinct craters formed during the famous “perfect eruption” of 2002, an event that reshaped the area around Piano Provenzana before its reconstruction. Throughout the hike, you will enjoy continuous views of the summit craters, walk across unique lava formations, and immerse yourself in a dramatic environment shaped by fire and time.
Discover the geological history of Etna as you ascend at a comfortable pace, stopping along the way to observe different lava types and learn about ancient eruptions. Your guide will share insights into the volcano’s behavior, flora growing on lava soil, and the powerful natural forces that continue to shape the mountain.
