Curious Facts

Mount Etna is the highest active volcano in continental Europe, one of the world’s most active volcanoes and a magic and primordial place. It rises to a height of over 3300 m. (11.000 feet) above the sea level, its north-south diameter is of 60 km (36 miles), it has four big central craters at its top and more than 200 small craters scattered all around the etnean area. In this part of Sicily the volcanism started about half million years ago and it evolved from a mostly submarine activity to the growth of many different sub-aerial volcanoes superimposed on one another. The result of this long and complicated evolution is the majestic volcano that we see today, which continues to grow, to evolve and to modify restlessly the landscape.
