Piano Grilli - Etna (Bronte)

June 2nd, 2019
Etna offers nature lovers unforgettable landscapes in every season!
The red of the sun and the black of the lava flows, combined with the colors of spring, will provide us with lasting memories of a splendid walk on the “Mongibello”. What better way to enjoy the magnificent month of May than with a high-altitude excursion? Immersed in the Etna park, our starting and ending point will be the Piano dei Grilli refuge, located in the municipality of Bronte (approx. 1,150 m altitude). This excursion, suitable for regular hikers, will feature an alternation between forest paths and old lava flows (the 1763 lava). Highlights will include the passage over Monte Lepre and Monte Egitto (1,612 m altitude). The setting, the history, and the typical mountain landscapes will provide the backdrop for this lovely Sunday.
