Itinerary
Starting at the port, your expert guide will take you on a fascinating journey through the island's history and geology. The trail winds along a scenic path that offers spectacular views of Lipari and Salina, while you are explained the volcanic phenomena that have shaped the landscape.

Arriving at the edge of the crater, you will have the opportunity to observe, from a safe distance, the fumarolic field, an area where volcanic gases escape from the earth, while your guide provides details of the ongoing geothermal activity. The return along the trail will allow you to learn about the history of past eruptions and the important role Vulcan played in the extraction of sulfur and other minerals, once a key resource for the island's economy. An immersive experience, among wilderness, history, and geology, to experience the magic of Vulcan as never before.
