1.Mount Etna: Summit Guided Hiking Tour up to 3,400 m
Join guides such as Eduardo or Giuseppe for a 5 to 6 hour Mount Etna hike from Rifugio Sapienza. Choose the moderate Barbagallo Craters at 3,000 meters or the more demanding summit route to about 3,400 meters, with cable car access, volcanic sand, lava flows, and views toward the Ionian coast.
“Pick up was on time and at my door. Everything was well organized and efficient. NOTE: the description doesn’t adequately warn you how strenuous the hike is. If there is any question about fitness, opt for a tour that includes the 4x4 truck/bus. Areas of the trail are narrow, steep, and in gravel that gives way under your feet. Also, at elevation, oxygen levels are low so coming from sea level there will be more difficult. In summary, the guide was attentive and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our trek and would consider it in the future.”
