This road bike tour to Mount Etna is an organized guided excursion for avid racing bike cyclists. This full day tour requires a morning start from Giardini Naxos. After a briefing and a bike setup, the trip to the top begins. The tour includes a warm-up, passing through Fiumefreddo di Sicilia and taking the cyclo track to the Port of Etna, with citrus groves, chestnut trees, prickly pears, and lava flows surrounding the route. Traditional towns like Giarre, Santa Venerina, and Zafferana are visited, with stops for local products. The tour ascends to Rifuggio Sapienza (2000 meters above sea level) before a downhill ride back to the starting point.
