Tips
The driveway coming from Nicolosi, up to the valley station of the Etna cable car is something very special. Dark lava fields from which plants seek their place. A worthwhile driveway, which can be perfectly combined with the complete circumnavigation of Etna.

Very impressive route, only moderately steep, but naturally very sunny, a drive in the cooler morning hours is highly recommended.

The traffic on weekends can be annoying in this great landscape
