Valle Del Bove - In this unique and very quiet experience, we walk in the shade of a pine and broom forest, very typical flora species on Etna. At the beginning the path will be uphill, but then you will see a spectacular landscape of Etna, the Bove Valley and the Ionian Sea in front of you. There, when we reach the top of this path, words useless.
I will tell you about the history of the volcano and the connections with the city of Catania.
Since I travel around Sicily making videos, I have lot of knowledges about Sicily. For this reason I am going to give you all the information you need about your trip to the island.

During this tranquil and highly enjoyable experience - suitable for families as well - you’ll get to witness some of Etna’s most awe-inspiring sights: natural scenery, magnificent views, and the Valle del Bove.
Firstly, we’ll traverse beneath a canopy of pines and brooms, trees native to Etna.
The initial part of the journey ascends, subsequently becoming flat. An hour’s trek amidst breathtaking scenery and spectacular views of the Ionian Sea brings us to the end of the trail, 1970 meters up. Once up there, an incredible vista awaits: Etna, Valle del Bove (a vast lava wasteland, 8 km in length and 5 km in breadth) and the Ionian Sea. Seeing it leaves one speechless.
All through the hike, I’ll be telling you about:
Etna’s formation and its evolution over the years;
Catania, its past, culture and its tie-ups with Etna;
Sicily in general and any other info you might want!
