Snowshoeing on Etna

January 26, 2025
A winter adventure on the volcano! We will hike with snowshoes through forests of birch, beech, and larch pine, and past ancient craters. Thanks to our snowshoes, we can explore the most evocative spots on Etna without any technical difficulty, soaking in spectacular landscapes and crisp, pure air. The route winds along the northern slope, between Rifugio Baracca and Piano Provenzana.
