We start cycling along a dirt path between woods and panoramic views of Etna villages, in a continuous alternation of woods and lava flows, until we reach one of the most impressive lava fields of Etna: Il Passo dei Dammusi. We are at an altitude of 1700 meters walking on pahoehoe lavas called also lavas rope, originated during a 10-year long eruption. A short trek will allow us to reach the Grotta dei Lamponi, a splendid example of a volcanic cave, with its remelting stalacties and its windows open in the sky. After exploring the cave, the descent begins, fun and fast. At the middle of the path a detour will take us along a single track on the lava flow of 1981. Here we will stop for a short trek along some craters originated during this eruption. The last part of the trail still give us others unique volcanic landscapes passing by green oases called Dagale.
