Imagine climbing one of the world's most active volcanoes and enjoying a breathtaking panorama from the summit!
Stromboli is the volcano of the Aeolian Islands, 924 metres above sea level and characterised by continuous explosive activity. We offer you a trekking excursion accompanied by an expert volcanology guide who will lead you up to an altitude of 400 metres in almost 3 hours!
The hike will start 3 hours before sunset from the square of the Church of San Vincenzo, and it will take you about 2.5 to 3 hours to reach the 400-meter altitude. During the climb, you will admire the typical Mediterranean flora with hues ranging from deep green to the warm tones of the lava that has solidified over the years, becoming one with the natural setting of the island. The hike includes a stop almost every 30 minutes, which will allow you to rest and admire the panorama. You will be amazed by the combination of elements that come together: sky, earth, water, and fire. Enjoy the explosions of Stromboli, one of the most intense and exciting natural shows in the world, in the darkness of the night!
