Arriving at the rim of the crater, you will have the opportunity to observe, from a safe distance, the fumarole field, an area where volcanic gases escape from the earth, while the guide will provide you with details of the geothermal activity in progress. The return along the trail will allow you to discover the history of past eruptions and the important role Vulcan played in the extraction of sulfur and other minerals, once a fundamental resource for the island's economy. An immersive experience, between wild nature, history and geology, to experience the magic of Vulcano like never before.
