    Tips

    The view of the summit craters of Etna is simply spectacular, but reaching them requires the accompaniment of a qualified volcanological guide for safety reasons. In spring, the landscape offers a suggestive contrast between the snow and the lava sand. The altitude, which touches 3,000 meters, requires caution and good physical preparation.

      Here only with a mountain guide. Weather can change quickly and it is also forbidden to climb up
