Trekking to the craters of Stromboli in the Aeolian Islands
Overview
An active, live volcano: Stromboli is one of the few volcanoes in the world in almost constant eruption. Admiring its glowing explosions at sunset is an emotion that leaves you breathless.
Trekking at sunset: The climb begins in the late afternoon and culminates in the most magical moment of the day. Seeing the sun dive into the sea from the slopes of a volcano is something you hardly forget.
Immersion in the wilderness: You will walk among now petrified lava flows, bushes of Mediterranean scrub and views that range over the Aeolian archipelago.
Elements in perfect balance: Earth, fire, water and air – everything comes together in a spectacular balance. It is a real live geology lesson, but also a profound sensory experience.
