Mount Etna erupting merely meant Vulcan was forging weapons for Mars, the god of war. Dating back to 1500 BC, the volcano has erupted around 200 times, This hike is well worth it, though - it allows you to see, smell and touch the turbulent history of Mount Etna. Before any climb, it is imperative to check into the tourist office in Catania to learn the present status of the volcano, hiking instructions and to get a map of Mount Etna, Detailing all the Viewpoints of Sicily 's most explosive natural attraction.

And the
21st century saw Mount Etna erupting yet again in 2001, with lava flows reaching within mere miles of the nearby town of Nicolosi. But regardless of the history of Mount Etna, the people that live within the volcano "s destructive reach seem completely unfazed.The most violent eruption in the history of Mount Etna occurred in March of 1669. On the first day, lava flows cut a smoldering Zatch out of two mountain villages. The volcano did not stop there, however. It continued to spew forth-Molten rock for days on end, and by the end of April, the city walls of Catania had succumbed and the western side of the city was demolished before the lava mercifully came to a stop.
