Discover the marvels of the north of Etna National Park on this 4x4 tour of Monti Sartorius. Plus, we'll visit Thieve's Cave. It will be an unforgettable experience!
Description
At the indicated time, we'll meet at Piazza dei Martiri. Here, we'll board a 4x4 and leave Catania behind as we start our route to Etna National Park.
Following the least trodden paths in the park, we'll share facts about the history, culture and traditions linked to one of the most famous volcanoes in Italy. Additionally, you'll discover the area's flora and fauna, as well as the changing landscape caused by Etna in each eruption.
After the first part of the 4x4 tour, we'll stop in the town of Milo, the highest town in the park, offering fantastic views of the Ionic Sea, Taormina and the volcano's crater.
We'll continue our tour to Monti Sartorius, formed from 7 inactive craters created in the 1865 eruption. We'll explore this area surrounded by white birch trees.
After a brief stop at a mountain refuge, we'll enter Thieve's Cave, a small lava tunnel from Prehistory.
Finally, we'll return to the 4x4 and travel to Zafferana Etnea, where we'll try some Sicilian delicacies, such as honey, wine, and different liquors. We'll conclude this 4.5-hour tour back in Catania.
