Departures begin from Piano Provenzana on Etna’s wild, less-touristic north slope, where group sizes are smaller for a more intimate experience. Off-road vehicles follow a panoramic track across ancient craters and recent lava flows up to 2,825 m. From there, a 500 m uphill hike winds through volcanic bombs and scoria to the Central Crater at 3,380 m. At the summit, admire the immense, unique volcanic landscape and the sweeping views from the “roof of Sicily” (visibility varies with weather and volcanic activity). The descent retraces the route, ending with an easy walk down soft scoria channels back to 2,825 m, where 4×4 vehicles return you to Piano Provenzana.
Off road vehicle (from 1800mt to 2825mt round trip): 60 Euro per person to be paid on the spot
K-way (rain jacket), hat and gloves (during autumn, winter and spring)
Parking ticket (€5 for the entire day on weekdays and €8 on Sundays and public holidays.)
