From there, the ascent of about 2h to the main crater rim at an altitude of 3.320masl starts.
You'll walk on the edge of the Central Crater, face the vertiginous Northeast Crater, and admire the famous Southeast Crater, author of the most recent and impressive eruptions. In addition to the vastness of the summit craters, you'll admire a unique volcanic environment, with gas emissions, volcanic bombs, and the sparkling colors of the ground due to the sublimation of various elements, including sulfur in particular.
After the visit at the top, the path of descent, in addition to being characterized by fine volcanic ash and slag, will remain panoramic thanks to the beautiful view of the Sicilian coast. The whole route will be seasoned with pleasant breaks, where the guide will explain the history, the formation and the peculiarities of the volcano. Once more at 2825masl, with the 4x4 you'll return to Piano Provenzana, the final point of a great and inevitable experience in Sicily.
