You will reach the beating heart of the "Good Giant" with Etna's most coveted excursion!
Starting from Piano Provenzana, you will board 4x4 vehicles to travel one of the highest dirt roads in Europe up to an altitude of 2800 m.
From here, an exciting trek to the Central Crater and the New Mouth (about 3300 m) will begin, where you can experience firsthand the creative and destructive force of the volcano.
During the descent, you will skirt the Northeast Crater and the spectacular Lion Valley, before returning from the Pizzi Deneri Volcanological Observatory by off-road vehicle.
A breathtaking experience between Strombolian explosions and primordial panoramas.
