01 · The experience
Two adventures, one volcano.
EtnaQuadSud is your base for experiencing South Etna up close: two guided tours departing from La Baita 3L Ski-Lab, at Piazzale Rifugio Sapienza (Nicolosi). In the saddle of a quad among lava flows and extinct craters, or on foot up to the active summit craters at 3,300 metres — you choose how high to go.
The quad adventure is off-road for everyone: automatic, easy-to-ride machines through broom bushes, pine woods and expanses of black lava, as far as a lava flow cave. 1 h 45 of adrenaline, with helmet, insurance and certified guide always included.
The summit craters trek is the highest experience on the volcano: you climb to 3,300 metres, on the rim of the active craters, among fumaroles, volcanic sands and views reaching the sea. With a volcanological guide, for those who want to watch Etna breathe up close.
