What you can expect

Discover the most beautiful and characteristic nature trails of north eastern of Etna on a mountain bike with pedal assistance.

A route of almost 50 km where you can admire the vastness and biodiversity of this unique ecosystem. We will take care of everything to offer you the best possible experience surrounded by nature. From our base of operations (with large car park included) we will take you by shuttle up to 1700 m above sea level from where, after a quick break at Chalet “Clan dei Ragazzi” (bar and bathroom available), our cycling adventure will begin.

We will climb up to Piano Provenzana point and from there descend through all the most important lava flows of Europe's largest volcano and its centuries-old forest, mostly off-road! Leaving the Etna National Park behind us, we will pass through some of the most characteristic local villages: Castiglione di Sicilia, located in the heart of the Etna wine region, is a charming town with its cobbled streets, medieval castles and endless vineyards; and Francavilla di Sicilia, a town at 330 metres above sea level, in the magnificent scenery of the Valle dell’Alcantara, surrounded by the “San Paolo” river and the “Zavianni stream” and dominated by the ruins of the Norman Castle. You will be able to take evocative panoramic photos and experience a slow and ancient way of life, to finally arrive at our destination, the Alcantara river and gorges.

Here you will have the opportunity to end your tour by visiting the world-famous Alcantara Gorges from the inside, which can be reached by an exclusive lift (offered by us), located inside the geological and botanical park of the Alcantara Gorges, which is equipped with all possible comforts, from toilets and showers to a food area with typical products and a large car park.

Suitable for everyone, from the novice to the more expert, offering the relaxation of naturalistic scenarios, without forgetting the adrenaline that only MTB can generate. Suitable for the more adventurous and eager for sport and adventure and at the same time for groups who want to enjoy a few hours of fun, knowledge of the area and inner peace.
