Even if it's only going uphill for a long time: It's really a real pleasure! The east side of Etna is very different from the rest. Here you drive for a long time through a wonderfully green (and shady) forest on good asphalt and again and again with impressive views.

There is a hut up here where you can not only have a coffee or snack, but also find shelter for the night. You can find more information about the Refugio here: ragabo.it.

There is also very tasty food at reasonable prices. I liked the chili con carne.
