What To Expect

Take a full tour of Mount Etna and explore the various valleys with the possibility to visit the slopes of the craters with the help of an on-board tour leader! Firstly, stop at the Alcantara Gorge and walk along the river bed as you enjoy the natural beauty. Take the Circumetnea, an old traditional narrow-gauge train that goes around the foot of the volcano reaching the town of Adrano in the south. Then, reach the Rifugio Sapienza at an altitude of 1.900 meters. Enjoy lunch or snack on your own at a local restaurant. Once there, you can choose to take part in optional activities like the ascent by cable car up to 2.500 meters. Continuing by off-road vehicles to the area of the summit craters at about 3.000 meters, you will be assisted by a licensed CAI guide (Italian Alpine Club).
