AltaQuota Trek
Duration
5 hours
Overview
-
The AltaQuota Trek excursion is a tour that allows you to experience the thrill of walking literally surrounded by surreal landscapes. The first part of the tour takes place in the gondola lift, from the Sapienza refuge (1960 m) to the arrival station of the Etna cable car (2510 m), from here we will proceed to trek to visit the Pian del Lago, a false floor volcanic sand that creates a surreal lunar landscape, you will then ascend the crater of the 2001 eruption, from where you can admire the nearby summit craters and the coast. Once you reach the lava fronts of the last eruptions (2018) you will reach a very panoramic area on the famous Valle del Bove, a vast depression generated by the collapse of an ancient volcanic building. The return, at the discretion of the guide, after evaluating the weather conditions and the capacity of the group, can foresee the descent with the cableway or trekking on sandy gullies to the parking lot. The maximum altitude reached with this tour is approximately 2650 meters.
