1. Mount Etna
The excursion we propose takes place on the southern side of the volcano and will allow you to reach the Central Crater of Etna, at an altitude of about 3345 meters above sea level, in a unique landscape, almost lunar.

Here you will have the feeling of walking on a live and pulsating volcano, surrounded by fumes, gases and the intense yellow color of sulfur.
