All about the trip
Covering an area of 1,190 km2 with a basal circumference of 140 km, Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe outside the Caucasus, and it is a UNESCO World Heritage. This quad tour takes you to Etna Natural Park trails. With a limited number of vehicles in the group, you can expect to have exclusive guidance without the stress of bigger groups. You will drive a modern and powerful quad 4x4, for a perfect and fun activity.
During this 40 km trip, you first meet a local guide who will explain many features of the local environment. The path of this tour loops around the foothill of Etna southern, eastern and western side. We will stop in many astonishing sites to take pictures and enjoy the natural places.
As you follow your route, you reach an altitude of 2000 meters, where you can admire dramatic volcanic landscapes. One of the most impressive stops is at Valle del Bove Belvedere, a natural amphitheater of Etna Est formed 10,000 years ago in a massive collapse. But it is not all. This tour also includes a fantastic visit to a lava tube.
If you want a real adventure, this tour is for you.
