Mount Etna

The tour includes a visit to Europe's largest active volcano: Etna or Mongibello. Going up towards the summit you go through various landscapes. From the highest points, you can enjoy a spectacular view that extends to the island of Malta. Etna became Unesco heritage in 2013.  You can go up through the road that leads to Rifugio Sapienza (1,923 meters). The refuge houses a well-stocked bar and shopping area. At guests' disposal is also a large panoramic terrace, where you can relax enjoying a splendid view over much of eastern Sicily. From the Refuge you can take, for a fee, the cable car to reach an altitude of 2500 meters. From there you can visit on foot or continue with off-road vehicles, to reach the crater area, located at 2920 m.
