Bove Valley + Mount Etna Hiking Tour
At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Schiena dell'Asino car park to begin a hiking route that will take us along Etna and the Bove Valley.
The hike will ascend from 5906 to 6463 feet (1800 to 1970 meters) following the Schiena dell'Asino trail. Along the way, we'll pass through pine forests and see ancient solidified lava flows, enjoying views of the Sicilian coast and the Ionian Sea.
Our guide will explain the formation of Etna and its caves, along with the connections between the volcano and Sicilian culture.
At the end of the trail, we'll view the Bove Valley, an extensive depression of more than 5 miles (8 kilometers) on the eastern side of Etna. After taking in the panoramic views, we'll start our descent along the Espalda del Burro, observing Bove Valley from a different angle and passing near a large black sand channel and a volcanic cave.
The trekking route lasts a total of 3 to 4 hours, returning to the starting point.
