Tours and Experiences

If you want to experience hiking to the summit of Europe's highest active volcano, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we can provide an expert local guide who will accompany you. Once at the summit, on clear days, you can see the Aeolian Islands and the island of Malta. You can also choose to explore the local trails and valleys by jeep or quad bike, crossing through the centuries-old Ragabo pine forest and stopping to admire the 2002 lava flow. You can also explore Etna by donkey, horse or bike.

The Alcantara Gorges are a volcanic canyon with basalt walls reaching up to 50 meters high carved by the Alcantara River. It is set within the stunning Alcantara Gorges Botanical and Geological Park, just 20 minutes from our Resort. Visiting the Gorges means venturing deep into the earth, witnessing spectacular natural phenomena. You can enjoy rafting, guided river trekking and rock climbing. The thrilling, adrenaline-fuelled experiences that await will make your Sicilian holiday truly unforgettable.
