Description

Get ready for a unique experience discovering the northern slope of Mount Etna with the Etna Grand Tour by Quad. This approximately 3.5-hour tour will take you through breathtaking volcanic landscapes and off-road trails that tell the thousand-year history of Europe's highest volcano. Starting from Rifugio Ragabo, you will immediately immerse yourself in unspoiled nature, crossing the majestic Ragabo Pine Forest and breathing in the pure air of the volcano. The tour will then take you to explore some of the most iconic lava flows, such as the historic ones of 1865, 1923, and 2002, which shaped the landscape around you. One of the most fascinating stops on the tour is a visit to an impressive lava flow cave, formed during ancient eruptions. With the help of your guide, you will enter this natural tunnel and discover how lava sculpted the inside of the mountain. Your adventure continues to Piano Provenzana, located at 1850 meters above sea level, a unique place for spectacular views of the crater and the Sicilian coastline. During the tour, your expert guide will provide detailed explanations of Etna's geology, flora, and fauna, making this excursion not only exciting but also educational. The ATVs used are automatic and suitable for all experiences, making the tour perfect for both beginners and experienced riders. With more than 90 percent off-road trails, this adventure is ideal for those seeking an adrenaline-filled experience and direct contact with nature.

Important Information

  • It is not included to eat and drink, but we make a technical stop at Piano Provenzana, where you can buy something to eat and drink if you want. To drive the ATV you need a car license (B) + a minimum age of 18. Children 7 years and older, only with good holding skills, can come as a passenger. A maximum of 2 people on 1 quad bike can ride at all times. We always do our tours with the utmost respect for nature, because we still drive in a protected area (Etna Park).
