Description
Embark on a guided trekking tour to explore the most interesting sites in Etna's summit area. Take a cable car to an altitude of 2500 meters, and walk along small paths created during the 2001 and 2002 eruptions. Visit a lava tunnel and the 2002 fracture where you can warm up in natural hot springs.
