Walk on active volcanoes in Sicily, Italy

Walk on active volcanoes in Sicily, Italy 759 , 8 Days

One of Sicily’s most fascinating characteristics is the juxtaposition of constantly changing colors.The sea is a predominant feature, with its many shades of green, turquoise and blues, contrasting sharply with the intense whiteness of the fishing villages and the black lava of the archipelago of the Aeolian Islands. Most of the islands are active volcanoes of which we only see a small tip.Mount Etna, the ever present, overpowering giant rises 3323m above sea level. The rugged cliffs and razor-sharp crests offergreat panoramas to the walker’s eyes as do the small villages built like eagle’s nests on the mountain slopes and the greens, and yellows and browns of the seemingly infinite succession of cultivated fields.Here, daily life passes away slowly, following the rhythm of the seasons, all strongly influenced by old rituals and traditions. The hard life is made sunnier by the excellent Sicilian food and wine that uses many fresh vegetables full of vivid colors.

Highlights:
♦ Island hopping through the Aeolian Islands
The Roman remains in Lipari
♦ Climbing up smoking and erupting volcanoes, Mt. Vulcano, Mt. Stromboli and Mt. Etna
♦ Wonderful beaches, incredible views, small picturesque Mediterranean fishing villages
