About Mount Etna

Set on the eastern coast of Sicily, Etna is the tallest active volcano in Europe, with thousands of visitors every year. In 2013 it was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its “exceptional level of volcanic activity”. The most common route leads to the Rifugio Sapienza at the south of the crater. From the refuge a cableway runs to an elevation of 2,500 m. The lunar scenery of volcanic rocks and black sand is one the most sensational in Italy.

Before returning to the hotel, you will have also the possibility to taste some typical products such as wine, olive oil and honey.
