    Hiking

    An impressive place. This is the site of the volcanic eruption that destroyed Mascali in 1928.

    Hiking

    This is the lowest part of the eruptive fracture of the 1928 eruption.
    The resulting lava reached the town of Mascali to erase it from the maps.
    It's possible to access inside one of the hornitos created by spattering activity.

    Hiking

    these are the mouths of the 28th, an event that led to the destruction of mascali. The mouths can be reached both from below, from the little church of wheat, and from the open space of the giarrita. in both cases you cross very beautiful woods
