Description
Embark on a memory-filled activity from Taormina
Duration
An Eight-Hour Stretch.About
Setting wheel on Europe's tallest active volcano and ticking a box off your must-do list might sound exciting. Now, picture yourself doing this while embarking on a full-day journey up Mount Etna! Your point of departure? Why either Taormina or Giardini Naxos of course – all anchored in absolute comfort! Picture this. You're embarking on a thrilling e-bike journey up the formidable Etna volcano, and there's an expert guide by your side throughout. And do bear in mind that with off-road routes to conquer – some 15/18 km worth of them! – you'll need at least intermediate abilities to join this tour. Ready? Awesome! Now saddle up as we take winding trails through wooded areas, uphill treks brushing past age-old layered lava flows found dotted on Etna's northern flank. Moreover, we will find the chance to stop off at an absolute marvel of a lava flow cave along our way— one of the volcano's finest features. Be prepared for otherworldly scenes that are guaranteed to steal your breath away– consider yourself warned so have your camera ready and raging! Our climb wraps up once we get to the refuge—a place where you can rest in the curve-inducing shadows created by some truly commanding trees before carrying on down-hill via a route leading back from whence you came. Once this awe-inspiring trek concludes, you'll probably find yourself with a rumbling stomach. After all, every Sicilian day trip demands the pleasure of food -- it isn't considered complete until one quaffs some local cuisine or savors samples of traditional fare. Therefore, during this electrifying e-bike tour beyond nature's wild wonders, there will be room for a relaxed break to relish in an authentic Sicilian lunch after your bike ride along the striking volcano terrain. Moreover, we’ll allot approximately 60 minutes of free time for personal exploration around our spot--a much-deserved pause before heading back to either Taormina or Giardini Naxos.Inclusions
