Citelli Refuge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

In contrast to the fair atmosphere at the Refugio Sapienza the Refugio Citelli is pleasantly quiet. You also get an excellent espresso, coke and water of course and the view over the coast to the Mediterranean is great.

generally you go up, but also the descent towards mount rinatu is not bad. it is then possible to easily return to the citelli with a circular route

Pizzi Deneri

Highlight • Summit

Half-height mountain boots are recommended, as you can easily slip down on the descent and otherwise the small lava stones will fall into your shoes. Those who are cautious also have a helmet with them for safety. The southern ascent is much warmer and tends to be snow-free in winter. From here there is a very nice view of Mount Etna away from the crowds of tourists. You can also enjoy the spectacle of active lava flows...
We also happened to meet a friendly local mountain guide who was traveling with his friends and who can be reached at aletnarock@gmail.com.

Pizzi Deneri Volcanological Observatory

Highlight • Monument

Of course, the following also applies here: Under no circumstances should you do without a good jacket, sensible shoes, sun protection and enough water - that goes without saying at an altitude of 2000m+.
