Update of 30 Jen 2023
The eruption that began on November 28, 2022 is still ongoing. It is an effusive eruption characterized by a lava flow that develops from a fracture at an altitude of 2824 meters at the northeastern base of the southeast crater. The eruption develops in a desert area and far from inhabited centers. At the moment, given the difficult to reach position and the presence of snowy terrain, lava tours are not organized.

TOURIST FRUITION – All our excursions, with the exception of the tours to the summit craters (see below) and Etna 3000, are active.
FRUITION OF SUMMIT CRATERS – The summit craters are currently off-limits to the public, even accompanied by authorized guides, for safety reasons related to the volcanic activity mentioned above (ordinances available on the site of the Etna park and / or territorially competent municipalities). The maximum altitude that can be reached is currently 2700 meters (Loc. Ex Torre del Filosofo, at the base of the summit craters). Our tours to the summit craters are currently suspended as the violation of these provisions is a criminal offense and the coverage of the insurance policies expires.
For those wishing to climb as high as possible in compliance with the provisions in force, we recommend the Etna 3000 tours (more touristic) and the High Altitude trek (for good walkers).
