This elite touring experience is conceived as a seamless journey to discover the very best of the volcano through a fluid and immersive itinerary. On the northern slope, you will immerse yourself in a world of primordial contrasts, where the dark ash of great eruptions meets the unexpected elegance of ancient pine forests and lunar landscapes. Throughout this private passage, I will lead you through magnetic silences and stories of places miraculously spared by fire, revealing the perfect balance between the volcano’s power and nature’s rebirth—an experience designed to inspire wonder.
Continuing eastward, you will gaze upon the majestic Valle del Bove, a natural amphitheater overlooking the Ionian Sea that offers panoramas of rare beauty. Here, exploration meets history: you will have the exclusive privilege of descending into ancient lava tubes to walk where molten rock once flowed and discover the historic niviere. It is a journey into the mountain’s secret heart, where the thrill of discovery blends seamlessly with the sophistication of an entirely tailor-made service.
Your journey culminates on the southern slope, among the iconic “button-hole” craters that crown the volcano’s profile like a ring of stone suspended between earth and sky. This tailor-made route brings you close to the raw power of the earth along legendary roads, through historic craters and infinite horizons that only a personalized expedition can offer. To conclude the day, you will celebrate this exclusive adventure with a premium toast above the clouds, watching the sun dip into the Mediterranean as Mount Etna grants you its final, spectacular farewell.

Wir haben eine wunderschöne Wanderung erlebt. Sebastiano ist ein toller Guide, der für den Ätna “brennt” und zusätzlich zu dieser Begeisterung fundiertes Wissen über die Natur und den Vulkan mitbringt. Toller Service, dass EtnaWay auch noch Ausrüstung (in unserem Fall die vergessenen Wanderschuhe) bereitstellt. Alles in allem absolut empfehlenswert!!

Wir hatten eine fantastische Tour mit Christiano! Er hat super viel gewusst und keine Möglichkeit ausgelassen uns mehr über Aetna, seine Entwicklung und auch die Geschichte drumherum zu erzählen! Wir waren mit 2 Kindern (4 und 8 Jahre) unterwegs, war super!! Wanderschuhe sind besser als Sportschuhe ;) Sehr empfehlenswert.

Hiking in Etna was an incredible experience. Gianpaolo is very easy going and a great guide who knows a lot about Etna. Not only did he taught us a lot about vulcanos, but also how Etna has shaped the Sicilian culture.
Our group got a bit of a cloudy day, but has Gianpaolo kept telling us, Etna is never boring! And as the clouds moved, we did get to see great views.
It was a great hike (we also got to visit a lava tunnel), and I learned a lot more than I was expecting!

We took the top craters hiking tour. It was a high quality hiking experience. Organized very well, in an enjoyable and safe way. Christian, the guide, was super friendly, speaking English, German and Italian. Truly unforgettable experience.
