Etna sunset tour is an afternoon exploration of mount Etna volcano including a wonderful quite easy walk along natural trails surrounded by extinct craters, caves, lava flows and great landscapes on the volcano slopes tinged with the warm colors of the sunset. A good way to enjoy the volcano during the cooler hours of the day. An occasion to have nice and interesting talks with one of us about the mount Etna to better understand its structure and related fenomena.
Fun and education is guaranteed for all you, families and kids included. Just try it.
The excursion will start
from your accomodation
or from a pick up place. Our knowledgeable
and enthusiastic guides
will show the Etna
landscapes and wildness,
endemic flora and
geological features
explaining the
surrounding fragile
environment. Having care
of it, we'll take you
following off-road
itineraries through
Etna's lava fields
always driving on
tracks, exploring
caves, and walking to
reach the "Valle
del Bove" Caldera's rim,
immense theatre of some
major last eruptions.
After the visit of a
lava tunnel and having
had a pic-nic lunch with
sicilian food and wine,
VolcanoTrek's guides
will drive you up to
2000 meters, from where
we will walk across the
lava flows of the 2002
eruption up to the 2002
eruptive fissure (2
hours long roundtrip
walk )* to experience
the incredible power of
nature that surrounds
you.
* On request, it's
possible a shorter walk
.
