A beautiful, short hike to the summit of Monte Zoccolaro with panoramic views of Mount Etna and the Valle del Bove caldera (lava flow from 1991-1993). Don't be fooled; there are actually two paths leading to the summit. The western one (= former road) runs through nowhere. With a lot of intuition and perseverance, you can continue from here, but there is no defined path to the summit—until you reach the marked path from the hut! The actual path to the summit is marked (trail 704), but it is a real, partly overgrown, sunken path that occasionally winds very close to the edge. Caution: after heavy rains, part of the edge could slide away. The cross on the summit of Monte Zoccolaro dates back to 1948, when priest Salvatore Russo, along with some parishioners, carried it on his shoulders to the summit of the mountain. Here, it was inscribed with the words: Prayer, Deed, Sacrifice and firmly anchored. Every year on September 14th – the day the cross was erected – a mass is celebrated at the foot of the monument at 9 a.m. In good weather, the view over the Val Bove is breathtaking, and the summit is one of the privileged vantage points for witnessing Etna's eruptions at night. It's worth it, but it's more than just a short walk!

The Valle del Bove can be reached in an hour on foot from Rifugio Sapienza. The huge valley is almost completely filled by a cooled lava flow, on which no vegetation was visible in 2023. Only a few higher spots protrude from the lava field where the lava flowed around it.

The point where the 1992 lava flow stopped! The fight between the man trying to save the inhabited center and the volcano. In the end, man's work pays off... by a miracle. Zafferana Etnea is safe!!! Very suggestive place.

The end of a lava flow. The human mind is unable to comprehend this incredible violence. Millions of tons of rock roll down the valley, and no matter what stands in the way of the flow, it will be caught. And what does man do: he builds his houses directly in the approach path. So, he wanted to know for sure and challenge nature. And then he prays to Mary to protect him. What can I say? If it doesn't work: bad luck. And if it works: great gratitude. people are like that.

classic viewpoint on the south face of Etna. It can be reached after a short hike. The first part (in the woods) is steeper, then it becomes gentler. The tour can also be completed by detouring towards the Sapienza refuge by completing a loop

Before the start of the tour necessarily inform about the weather conditions. Between autumn and spring the weather can change quickly at these altitudes. Strong wind, rain and snow make walking on the ridges extremely dangerous. Check the weather forecast before you start the tour. Strong winds, heavy rain or snow are very dangerous on this trail.
