Best place to start your visit is Rifugio Sapienza . From there you can visit Silvestri Craters for free or there are different difficulties and prices to go up to the top.

Check the weather forecast before going to Etna. If it's cloudy you won't be able to enjoy the great views . If it's too windy you won't be able to go up in the cable cars . Are there trips to the top?

You feel like in another world ???? here... You are walking above the clouds... Amazing views and experiences.

Bring a jacket and waer good walking shoes !!! At the Etna you can take a cable car or a jeep to go up. Hiking costs nothing though and you get to stop for pictures when ever you like! ????

Alberto Pravettoni

Go from north side (linguaglossa town ) to piano provenzana, there look for STAR tour by jeep and trekking to the main crater! Visitate lo da nord con la compagnia STAR.

Utku Alemdaroglu

30€ for a cable car just for an upper view ????? ıf you are really really lucky you can see all of the island from the top..

Robin Bertels

Mama Etna, as the Sicilians call her, is Europe’s highest volcano . Visits up to 2900m possible.

Anastasya Chmil

Don't pay this money. Take your time and go to the right side on the road . Then u will see the sign, and the track . 1 hour track , and u will have amazing view and photos

If you want to visit the Etna; go to the Central Station of Catania. Go to the busses circle, at place 6 there is a blue touringcar from AST. Tickets you buy in the bus €6,60 (return). Bus leaves 8:15

Wiebe de Jager

You can buy a cable way return+jeep ride+40 minute guided walk ticket at the ground station for about €60. Be sure to wear sturdy shoes and bring a warm coat with you!

Paul Foster

Wear some warm clothes if on the sunset tour (at 3k meters it gets chilly when the sun goes down)

Crescentrating Halal Friendly Travel

It's one of the most active volcanoes in the world. From Rifugio Sapienza visitors can take a 4-wheeler drive and a cable car.Finding halal food along the area can be difficult Read more

A must see when you are there, a bit expensive

Mathijs van der Hurk

Cablecar: 29 euro. 4x4 jeep and guide to top (3km), 31 euro. You should do that!

Ski Etna south for a lunar-like experience. Etna north for better ski conditions.

One of my favorite places in Sicily.

Wait until the afternoon when all tourist geoupa leave to do the Funivia ride. Otherwise you wait for a loooong line .

Si beau, des paysages lunaires et malgré tout une nature qui reprend le dessus. Dommage que ce ne soit pas très propre aux WC et que le tri des déchets semble totalement inconnu aux buvettes !

Damien

Un passage obligé pour toute personne visitant la Sicile. Cest beau. Il fait un peu frais le matin et les chaussures de marche sont indispensables.

sarah mmv

La nature d'un endroit exceptionnelle belle randonnée on entend même l'activité du volcan selon l'endroit où on se trouve

Fulya M

Otelden 60 Euro turlara katılmayın,3000 metreye çıkmak için 62 Euro daha harcamanız gerekiyor. Ana otobus terminalinden sabah 8:15 deki otobüsle gidin (6 Euro ) sonra teleferiğe binin. Rehber de var.

Viacheslav Degtyarenko

На вулкан можно забежать, 43 км, заехать на МТБ или на джипе, крупные извержения не часты, 1 раз в 3 месяца. Летом лежит снег, температура +3 и ветер.

Reynaldo Vannucci Neto

Saber que o vulcão é ativo e sua história é milenar, podendo estar próximo encanta o aventureiro.

Geo Magazine

Il vulcano che torreggia sopra Catania è il più grande d’Europa e tra i più attivi al mondo. Costruito a partire dal tardo Pleistocene, non ha mai smesso di essere attivo e viene studiato da 3500 anni

Mario Terra Neto

One of the best experiences in my life! Goes to the top because you'll have an option to stop just only after the "funiculare", like an "first level". Mario Terra Neto, São Paulo, Brasil.

Salim Ezer

Bulutların üzerinde güneşli, rüzgarsız bir hava gibisi yok

Ксения Килина

Обратите внимание,что обычным мвршрутгм вы поднимаетесь до спящкго кратера .Чтобы увидеть активнвй кратер необходимо записаться на специальную экскурсию в отдельнлм здании,стоимгсть 75 евро с человека

Sergey Minko

Виды крутые. Но если вы пошли в футболке и сандалиях, смело берите в прокате куртку и ботинки, не пожалеете :)

Luigi Rossi

Visita molto suggestiva, soprattutto se nel periodo di un'eruzione. Merita una sosta agli chalet per il pranzo !
