Departure from Taormina to Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe.During the ascent, different kinds of vegetation can be seen: flowering, fertile citrus groves, vineyards, fruit trees and orchards, chestnut woods, beech woods, spread right up to the highest point. Then it is almost desert-like, where juniper bushes and astragalus sometimes grow over the lava. Visit to the extinct Silvestri Craters at 2000m. Return towards Taormina.

Remarks: Please bring warm clothes and walking shoes.
