Description

You'll meet the guide in Catania, in the city center, where the 4x4 tour will start. On board our 4x4 Jeep, the first stop will be a cave in Nicolosi. The second place to visit will be Monte Salto del Cane, an adventitious crater located at an altitude of about 1,400 m on the SE slope of the volcano. This Etnean site because it is rich in naturalistic suggestions, both in the volcanological and botanical fields, not excluding fauna. The third place you'll to will be along the Valle del Bove, a basin that is deserted, covered by recent lava flows (eruption of 1991-1993 and following) occupying an area of approximately 37 km². Back on the Jeep, you will arrive in the Rifugio Sapienza area, at 1900 metres above sea level. Here you can decide whether to stop and visit the area on your own or take a short, easy trek to visit the famous Crateri Silvestri and the 2001 and 2002 lava flows, where the scenic wonder blends with the geological interest of the site (a UNESCO heritage site). During lunch break, we will stop at a nice mountain refuge, where you can enjoy a light lunch based on typical products, accompanied by Etna wine offered by Etna Experience. The excursion may be subject to slight variations depending on the specific needs of the group and/or weather conditions and/or volcanic criticality. You will be back in catania at around 4.30 PM. You will be dropped off at the same place where you were picked up. (Unless special requests are made in advance)
