Etna gives us an extraordinary day for our first ski mountaineering of the season. The contrast between the snow, the explosions of the north-east crater, the view of the Aeolian Islands and a sunset on the Cyclops stacks give us unique emotions
“From sunset to dawn”, bivouac at altitude and ascent to the Summit Craters of Etna at first light in the morning.
One of my favourite authors wrote, “In twenty years’ time you won’t be disappointed with the things you’ve done, but the things you won’t have done. Then drop anchor, abandon safe harbours, catch the wind in your sails. Explore. Dream on. Discover.”
Etna in autumn becomes an incredibly varied playground for mountain bike lovers. Paths that cross lava flows and craters of different morphologies and fun single tracks in a beech and birch forest made even more magical by autumn colors. Discover the wild north side of Etna with our e-bike tours
The ancient Greeks thought that the God of Fire, Hephaestus, lived beneath Aitne (Mt. Etna from the ancient Greek word) .
