    Tips

    March 5, 2018

    Mountain biking

    In 1991 there was a really big eruption of the Etna, which will also be extremely active again in 2020 and repeatedly "erupts". The lava flow from back then is still deep black - a trail of devastation that is still dead at first glance. Again and again you drive past the ruins of abandoned houses, which are recaptured by nature in quick steps. Scary and impressive at the same time.
