• Mount Etna - Our adventure begins with a leisurely walk amidst a variety of endemic flora, from iconic towering trees to unique botanical wonders like the Astragalus Siculus, exclusive to Etna. As we traverse the trail, a vista of numerous adventitious craters adorning the volcano’s slopes unfolds, offering breathtaking panoramas encompassing the entire city of Catania and the historic craters nestled amidst inhabited areas. With favorable weather conditions, the coastline stretching towards the province of Syracuse might grace us with its presence.
• Valle Del Bove - Continuing our trek, we encounter winding streams, locally known as “Sciambro,” meandering through the terrain, fed by snowmelt or torrential downpours. Our path leads us to a viewpoint overlooking the Valle del Bove, an ancient volcanic caldera dating back approximately 10,000 years, spanning over 6 kilometers in length and 4.5 kilometers in width. Here, the sight is nothing short of awe-inspiring, with panoramic views extending from the summit craters to the southeast crater, Calabria, Giardini Naxos, Taormina, Catania, the port of Catania, and the vast Ionian Sea.
• Mount Etna - After a refreshing break where we indulge in snacks and enjoy the panoramic splendor, we continue along the ridge of the valley, marveling at the various basaltic dykes nearby. Returning via an alternative route, we delve into the heart of Mount Etna’s geological wonders, encountering the iconic juniper plant, essential for the aroma of Etna’s Gin, among other marvels.
• Mount Etna - We will admire the Hornitos, volcanic structures resembling turrets, formed around 1600 from welded rocks. Particularly captivating is the small “window” that offers a breathtaking view of Catania, with rock formations mimicking the appearance of a framed cityscape.
• Mount Etna - Continuing our journey, we will explore the magnificent Pitagora Cave, named so for its entrance resembling a right-angled triangle, reminiscent of the famous Pythagorean theorem. This unique geological formation holds secrets waiting to be unveiled, and we’ll discuss them during the excursion!
