Private Hiking Tour

At the designated time, we will meet at Schiena dell’Asino car park to start our hiking tour around the landscapes of Etna and The Valle del Bove. The hike will take us to an altitude of 1,970 metres (6,460 feet) above sea level via the Schiena dell’Asino path, known for being one of the easiest routes in the Etna Natural Park. You will learn about the origin of the path's name and other insights during the hike.

As we ascend, we will discuss the volcanic lands in the east of Sicily and explore its hidden caves. Upon reaching the crater's highest point, we will enjoy views of the Valle del Bove, a landscape characterized by volcanic ash. Following our time at the summit, we will begin our descent, passing by a huge black sand canal and Pythagoras Cave, a tunnel formed by a lava river.

The hiking route will conclude at the starting point after a total duration of 3-4 hours.
