Itinerary
During the journey we will cross an eruptive fracture, driving our quads between long fields of lava and black volcanic sand we will admire explosive craters and discover one of the many beauties that distinguish Etna: a lava flow cave. We will then stop to visit some typical buildings of the area, similar to Sardinian nuraghi or Apulian trulli.
Continuing along the route we will cross the Etna broom forest, we will descend along lava flow channels, passing between lunar landscapes and "dagale", wooded islands surrounded by petrified lava.
We will cross a forest of Etna pine trees, following the bed of a dry stream, where the landscape is characterized by the alternation of lava and woods. We will then return to the starting point and finish the quad tour.
