Overview

Trekking is the most recommended activity for those who love nature and want to get to know the Etna park more closely and intimately. Our guides will accompany you to discover the less touristy places and the most fascinating views of the UNESCO World Heritage volcano. You will discover that Etna is not just lava and eruptions. Walking in this territory will be, a gratification for your senses: the view, with the grandiose views. Smell, with the scents of forests and endemic plants. Hearing, with the sound of footsteps or roars, if the volcano is erupting. These are just some of the emotions that you can enjoy in our trekking on Etna.

We offer 2 solutions, half or full day, both with a private guide or for small groups formed by our organization. Itineraries are then tailored to the abilities of the participants and you can make any itinerary requests when booking.

Activity itinerary

Mount Etna
  • 4h
Etna, in addition to being one of the most active volcanoes in the world, is certainly also one of the most fascinating. Inevitable it is the subject of numerous stories and curiosities. Its geographical position in the center of the Mediterranean Sea, with the sea just a short distance away, creates ideal conditions for developing an incredible diversity of landscapes. Anyone who imagines the volcano as a wasteland consisting only of bare and raw volcanic rock is wrong. The Etnean territory extends from sea level up to 3329 meters, an absolutely variable altitude based on the eruptive activities! This great altitudinal difference in a relatively small space has created a unique ecosystem, within which man for millennia has learned to live together in very particular conditions, always defining it with multiple names, among which A 'prevails in the local meaning. Muntagna.
Valle Del Bove
  • 30m
Based on favorable weather conditions, the itinerary for the Etna Trekking excursion often includes a visit to the Valle del Bove, a magnificent natural amphitheater created by the collapse of multiple volcanic structures of the past. Here the panorama is surreal.
MontataGrande - AgricolTour & Gusteria dell’Etna
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Tasting all'agricoltour MontataGrande with tasting of Etna and Sicilian specialties (wine, liqueurs, oil, honey from Zafferana, sweet creams, salty pesto, pistachio from Bronte, etc).
