Mount Etna is Europe's highest and most active volcano, an imposing lava-covered giant looming over Catania and dominating the landscape of eastern Sicily. Guided hikes to the summit craters pass through moonlike lava fields, pine forests, and ski slopes, and the views from the top on clear days stretch across the entire island to mainland Italy. Hotels in Catania serve as the natural base for Etna excursions, with the mountain just 30 kilometres from the city centre.
