With this excursion we will reach one of the most beautiful viewpoints of the Etna volcano to admire the sweet beauty of the sunrise.
The Sartorius Mountains (1,720 m) will be the place where we will wait for the sunrise. They are ancient craters formed during the 1865 eruption. The name is a tribute to Wolfgang Sartorius von Waltershausen, the first scientist to catalog the eruptions of the volcano in the 19th century. From the Sartorius Mountains we will move to the Grotta della Neve, a small lava flow tunnel used in the past as a snow mill (place where snow was kept for the summer season). The last leg of the tour will take us to Case Pietracannone. From the structure we will follow the path to Monte Fontane, crossing the lava fields of the eruptions of 1950-51 and 1979. Reached the top of the mountain (1,278 m), in front of us the panorama will open on the vast black sea of the Valle del Bove.
Returning to the meeting point we will thank our guests with a typical Sicilian breakfast.

Etna sunset excursion with clouds and rain. Suggestive views: the wind at high altitude swept away the fog, revealing the view of the craters, incredible lunar landscapes. Thanks to the guide Lino and the entire Etnapassion team

We lived the experience of Etna at dawn accompanied by the exceptional guide Lino. It was an experience that I highly recommend because, in addition to being very exciting, it enriches you with knowledge (and even managed to involve my 11 year old daughter). Having the fortune of being accompanied by such an expert guide allows you to fully understand the wonder and uniqueness of this wonderful volcano.

Watching sunrise was beautiful! Our guide Santi was amazing. He brought us coffee, tea and biscotti as well a blanket to watch the sunrise. We then explored the craters and caves, which were very cool to see and interesting to learn about. After, we went to a farm to taste amazing wines, oils, olives, sun dried tomatoes and artichokes as well as different types of honey. We ended very full with a great traditional Sicilian breakfast. Santi was super knowledgeable and showed us a really good time. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to explore Sicily!

My the biggest and breathtaking experience was the hiking trip to Mount Etna, where I climbed with Giuseppe Martinico from 1000 m to 2670 m. Giuseppe is an amazing person, open minded, friendly, has infinite knowledge not only about Mount Etna, but also about fauna and flora, geology also historical knowledge of every place that I visited with him, knowledge that he willingly shares, you listen everything with bated breath. He answered my numerous questions very patiently and comprehensively.
He is also very caring, trips, sightseeing or climbing are tailored to the abilities of a given person.
Thank you so much Giuseppe

We had an amazing time at Etna during the sunrise tour with Guiseppe. He brought almond milk, coffee and cookies for during the sunrise and in detailed explained us about different aspects of Etna and vulcanos in general in a simple and understanding way, answering all of our questions. He adjusts the difficulty of tour depending on the person interests and fysical condition.

Amazing experience, do yourself a favor and book an Etna tour with Augusto, the guide that we have. Augusto took the time to explain us EVERYTHING about Etna and Siciliy from a geological point of view but also digressing on history, culture and language. He drove a 4x4 Jeep very smoothly and gave us cookies and wine. On top of that he was super polite and funny. Just book this tour.
