Mount Etna: Summit Craters Guided Trekking Tour

Trek across the summit of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe. Walk through a lava tunnel and admire the dramatic panoramic landscapes along the way with a guide.
Trek to the top of the highest active volcano in Europe with a guide. Admire the dramatic beauty of Mount Etna and the surroundings from the summit craters.
The ascent is by cable car and 4 × 4 minibusses up to an altitude of 2900m in the Torre del Filosofo area. From here, after about 1.5h of uphill hiking, you'll reach the edge of the central crater where you can observe the Bocca Nuova (3250m ). This crater opened in 1968 and is probably the most impressive one.

Going around the Bocca Nuova you will find yourself on the edge of the Voragine, the heart of the Central Crater. From the top, you can wander 360° with your gaze and if the day allows, it is possible to see the Aeolian islands and almost all of northern Sicily.

From the top, you begin the steep but easy ash and slag terrain descent passing through the craters of the 2002 eruption. You will then walk inside a lava tunnel and finally admire the volcanic amphitheater of Valle del Bove, a spectacular 8 km long and 4 km wide caldera.
You will then return to the cable car arrival station at an altitude of 2500m.
