Castiglione-di-sicilia, Information and images

  • Here you can find out how to save 60 EUR per person to reach the Torre del Filosofo (subcrater of Etna).. In addition, one can ascend to the main crater with high mountain experience.. <9> <9> Starting point: Parking at N37.. 699594 E15.. 000339. There you can stand for 10 EUR per day with the camper.. At night (from 18 o´clock) it is free.. <9> <9> Normally you take the cable car up 600m up to 2500m, then take a crowded bus to about 2900m and then go with about 100 other people and a mountain guide about 100 m to the Torre del Filosofo.. The mountain guide is completely nonsensical, since the trails are well-trodden paths.. Nevertheless, he is duty.. All this together costs about 60 EUR and is very disappointing because the (secondary) crater is not very active.. If anything, he smokes a little.. <9> <9> The 60 EUR can be saved with a hike.. <9> Anyone who is reasonably fit can walk up the road or down the ski slope to the mountain station.. That takes about 1h 30 min.. At the top you walk comfortably on a road, or, if you do not want to breathe the dust of the buses, across the country on gravel and gravel to the Torre del Filosofo (good visibility provided).. That takes about 1-1.. 5 h.. <9> After that you stay a bit off the mountain guides and continue towards the main crater.. But the road has left, so you can find it.. Achtun From here it is officially forbidden to continue and it is to expect high alpine terrain with all the dangers that exist in our Alps.. At the crater you have the additional dangers of the volcano.. <9> After about 2 hours you are at the top of the crater and look 300m deep.. Everything smokes and smokes up there, the ground is hot.. If you are lucky, you can see lava 300 meters below.. It is a unique experience, you are right on the active volcano.. <9> The way back is the same as the way there.
