Snow Party - Snowshoeing on Etna

February 09, 2025
An unforgettable Sunday on the northern slope of Etna, exploring the Monti Sartorius, Rifugio Baracca, and the Bosco delle Betulle. We will use snowshoes to traverse off-trail paths, immersing ourselves in the unique atmosphere of the birch, beech, and pine forests. During the hike, we will stop for lunch at an unstaffed mountain hut, warming up by the fireplace.
