Full Description Summit Trekking Etna South<\/h3><\/div>The Etna Summit Trekking from South is a demanding<\/b> hike suitable for those who want an intense experience and are moderately trained. Children from 10 years of age<\/b> can take part if they are used to walk in nature.<\/p>\n
For those who are not satisfied with a ‘easy hike’ but want to experience strong emotions, the Etna South Summit Trekking <\/b>is the perfect experience.<\/p>\n
One must be able to move over sandy and debris-covered terrain<\/b>, because the paths are not always there and the route can be exposed to the wind.<\/p>\n
Our hike starts at the meeting point where you will meet our guide at the bar “La Terrazza dell’Etna” – Etna Sud – at an altitude of 1900 metres <\/b>where, after a short briefing to adjust to the altitude, we will take the cable car to the first stage.<\/p>\n
The Etna cable car will take us to the height of 2500 metres<\/b> where we will be welcomed by a rocky, lunar-looking landscape <\/b>where we can admire the 2001 crater<\/b> still smoking at the height of 2700 metres.<\/p>\n
The trek takes about two hours<\/b>, with breaks to catch our breath, admire the view and take photos.<\/p>\n
During the trek, we will cross expanses of ancient and recent lava flows towards the highest accessible altitude<\/b> to observe the majestic summit craters<\/b>.<\/p>\n
After admiring the summit of Mount Etna<\/b> at the height of 3000 metres and filling our eyes with the unique landscape offered by Etna’s summit, we will begin our descent to the cable car.<\/p>\n
We will return to our starting point with a baggage of emotions<\/b> and images impossible to forget!<\/p>\n<\/div>
