3,000 m Option (Cable Car & Trekking):

For those who opt for the 3,000m trek, the adventure begins at Rifugio Sapienza. You’ll take the cable car to 2,500 m and continue on foot through recent lava fields to the Barbagallo Craters at around 3,000 m. Enjoy stunning views of the summit area before descending and returning by cable car.

3,400 m Summit Option (Cable Car, 4x4 & Trekking):

Alternatively, if you're up for a more challenging expedition, consider the 3,400m summit option. After the cable car ascent, 4x4 vehicles take you to 2,850 m, where the trek to the summit begins. Hike across volcanic terrain to reach approximately 3,400 m, exploring the central craters and enjoying panoramic views over Sicily’s Ionian coast.
