Best Road Cycling Rides to Descent Through the Lava Field at Silvestri Craters

Tips

  • Since the road surface is sometimes very bumpy, if possible choose this route for the driveway, the road is much better in the direction of Nicolosi (09/2017)

  • Beautiful hairpin bend descent through the lava field up to Zafferana Etnea. The road surface is unfortunately not so good.
