Departure from Zafferana Etnea (Catania)
A very pleasant and varied hike in the Etna massif. The first section up to the ridge is an easy walk through typical vegetation, first through woodland and then through ‘high-altitude savannah’, with a beautiful view of the coast. From the ridge, there’s a splendid view of the Del Bove valley and Mount Etna. Then the steeper ascent along the ridge takes you into a whole new world. The vegetation gradually disappears, giving way to volcanic scoria.

Departure from Milo (Catania)
A gentle wander north of Etna (a few kilometres at low altitude), offering a glimpse of the terrain and its vegetation. The eruption that created the seven Sartorius crates dates back to the late nineteenth century, nature has partially returned to this area.
