Start pedaling heading Catania for about 5 km in a lowland area.
Our aim is to warm up our muscles and get acquainted with our road bicycles. Once we have finished the first part of climb of Etna tour, comes a soft hill 5% to 10% for about other 5 km. We pass above Fiumefreddo di Sicilia, a little town so named because of an underground river flowing here from the northeastern slope of Mount Etna. Observe the changes in vegetation, which becomes increasingly bushy and wild. We finally find ourselves surrounded by olive groves, fields and greeneries, characteristics for this region. The First Wall and Wine Cellars.

Realizamos el tour del Monte Etna con Leonardo, un guía extraordinario y atento. El me tuvo paciencia, ya que era mi primera vez de ciclismo de montaña. Escalamos alrededor de 1,000 metros en bicicleta y fue increíble todos los paisajes que presenciamos: el Valle de alcantara, los pueblitos icónicos sobre la montaña, vistas únicas al Monte Etna, viñedos, y de regreso en el descenso tuvimos vista al mar.

The overall experience was great and would definitely do this again with Leonardo. However, I would make small adjustments in planning for a better experience.
- Set expectations for you guest such as bring your own food and drinks. I thought there was going to be a rest stop between climbs to fuel up...only water powered me through the ride. Next time, I will bring more food and proper hydration
- Set expectations that we need to climb at a minimum of around 6-10km/hr avg. otherwise the ride will be too long. I cramped up near the end so we ended completed the entire ride in 4hrs. I think to let everyone know that max ride time is around 5-6hrs.
- While Leonardo set the pace and lead the ride it was just him and I. While he did his best to guide me through the climb it would have been better for him to set the pace based on my conditioning. I was soloing until the next regroup point after I cracked with cramps.
These are very minor points and like I said would definitely recommend to all my friends.

Wij hadden fietsen gehuurd die op locatie zijn geleverd en zijn zelf op pad gegaan. Vanaf het eerste contact zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk. De fietsen waren erg fijn. Wel zo prettig bij het beklimmen van de Etna!
