ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
Starting from the mediaeval village of Randazzo, we take the Mareneve state road to arrive at the entrance of the Etna park. A dirt path between woods and panoramic views will bring us along some lava flows. The cycling go on crossing typical volcanic vegetation, pine forest and a wonderful centuries-old beech until to reach one of the most imposing lava flows: the Passo dei Dammusi with its pahoehoe lavas. We are an altitude of 1700 meters above an huge lava fields, formed during an eruption lasted over 10 years. A short trek will allow us to reach the Grotta dei Lamponi, a splendid example of a volcanic cave, with its remelting stalacties and its windows open in the sky. After exploring the cave, the descent begins, fun and fast. At the middle of the path a detour will take us along a single track on the lava flow of 1981. Here we will stop for a short trek along some craters originated during this eruption. The last part of the trail still give us others unique volcanic landscapes passing by green oases called Dagale. The path ends again in the small town of Randazzo where if you want you can enjoy a delicious ice cream or a fresh Granita.
