マレットのおすすめツーリングルート

beautiful route through woods and lava flows

Beautiful basilica, built from lava rock.

Beautiful view of the most beautiful side of Mount Etna

The beautiful refuge is open

Unfortunately it was closed in April.

The bivouac has been operational for a few months. New, clean, internally lined with wood, without any writing. The only shame is the poorly insulating iron frames and the transparent plastic instead of glass: horrible!

The Rifugio Piano dei Grilli is a welcoming structure immersed in the Etna Park. It offers a warm and hospitable shelter, with an internal room where you can relax Often frequented on weekends, it has a small workshop corner for bicycles. The view of Etna from here is simply spectacular.

"The Feast of the Assumption [which the Catholic Church celebrates annually on August 15th in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary] is a warning sign: Detach yourselves somewhat from the earth! And Mother Church reminds us that on this feast we should ask God for the grace to strive for the things of heaven. But this day also answers a question that many people ask themselves today: Don't we also have a right to the things of this earth, a right to rest, to pleasure...? Yes, we do have that right, but within certain limits!" (Albino Luciani / Pope John Paul I)
