    Hiking

    The craters from the 1892 eruption are located right next to the road and are easily accessible from the large parking lot, just a few meters away.
    Not quite the raw, pristine experience of the steaming summit region, but with a wonderful interplay of colors between the ground and the emerging vegetation.

    From here you have a great view of the surrounding area.

    Silvestri craters formed by the old eruptions, the closest to the paved road.
