Ashàra's alpine and volcanological guides will guide your steps, giving you unforgettable moments and sensations. Enjoy the magnificence of Etna in the coldest period in its brilliant colors. Starting from the Ashàra info point located in Piazzale Rifugio Sapienza, we will go up by cable car to an altitude of 2,500 metres. From there, we will start the trek at around 3,000 meters. The presence of ice and snow makes this excursion a suitable activity for expert hikers. Travel along long stretches of snow and visit the cone of the 2001 eruption, the Valle del Bove and the Barbagallo craters. Admire Etna's summit craters from a safe distance before starting the return trek. If snow conditions permit, we will visit a lava flow channel before arriving at the upper station of the cable car to return to the starting point.

La sortie sur l'Etna était très agréable, plein de neige, raquettes aux pieds. Les explications géologiques en anglais très claires. On aimerait y passer plus de temps!

An amazing hiking and outdoors experience with a professional guide and helpful logistical support. The company was very receptive in communicating on WhatsApp ahead of our visit to Mount ETNA and provides a range of equipment for those that need it on the trek - boots, warm jackets, hiking poles, etc. Their staff is also helpful in arranging transfers from Catania and providing info about the daily bus that goes to Sapienza to and from Catania. You will not be disappointed and get the ultimate experience on Mount Etna! Worth every Euro.

Fantastic day. Mary was extremely helpful in ensuring we got to the meeting point, helping to arrange our transfer and ensure we had all the right gear. Vincenzo was an outstanding guide! Extremely knowledgeable and took great care of everyone on the tour, encouraging us all along the way. Spoke 3 languages that we know of based on people in our group. His knowledge of the mountain was second to none. Our group had my 66 year old father and husband and I (both late 30/ early 40) we all did the climb and descent quite easily as did the majority of the group. It isn’t an easy climb though and would recommend reasonable fitness, good health and no injuries. Total time from pick up of gear to drop off of gear was 6hours, plus additional transfer time. Recommend reading instructions on what to bring and following diligently. Gear is available and you can buy extras at the bottom of the mountain, but always easier to have your own basics. That being said the gear we borrowed (hiking boots and wind jackets) were good. Highly recommend this great experience!
This tour in Catania is organized by Ashàra - Volcanological Guides in Sicily
