Very pretty church overlooking a beautiful, well-kept square! Etna in the background makes everything even more evocative.

Traces of the volcano

Highlight • Volcano

In 1991 there was a really big eruption of the Etna, which will also be extremely active again in 2020 and repeatedly "erupts". The lava flow from back then is still deep black - a trail of devastation that is still dead at first glance. Again and again you drive past the ruins of abandoned houses, which are recaptured by nature in quick steps. Scary and impressive at the same time.

Piazza Umberto

Highlight • Settlement

A beautiful place in Zafferana Etnea. If you can get one, then it's a good Italian drink. Here you have wonderful views of a small park, but especially on the Mediterranean on the horizon. A really nice ambience, to let a tour relax or unwind.
