Explore the summit of Europe’s highest active volcano.

A spectacle that is unique in the world
The excursion to the summit craters will allow you, in a unique and evocative setting, to reach the summit of the highest active volcano in Europe, to be able to see and admire up close the craters currently active on the volcano. During the route, it will be possible to visit the sites and craters of the most recent eruptions, a lava flow tunnel will be crossed, and a lookout from which the majestic depression of the Valle del Bove, site of Etna’s ancient eruptive apparatuses, can be observed.
The itinerary will take place by cable car and all-terrain bus in round-trip service up to the maximum limit currently reachable by the cable cars, and then continue entirely on foot with a guide
