Monte Ruvolo – Case Zampini

The territory located between Hiking Trails nos. 708 and 710, both going from the volcano’s low to medium altitudes, are of great landscape and scientific interest due to the high number of lateral craters scattered around it.

Hiking Trail no. 710A allows enjoying some recently formed craters (M. Nuovo and M. Mezzaluna, dating back to 1763, M. De Fiore dating back to 1974). By climbing on their peaks, generally few tens of meters high, it is possible to observe the neat boundaries between the lava flows and the surviving strips of forest. The connecting trail is 3,860 meters long and unfolds between 1,550 and 1,800 m of altitude.

Hiking Trail no. 710B features a length of 2,140 m and a 67 m altitude difference. At a lower altitude, it connects the base of M. Ruvolo to Case Zampini through M. Tre Frati.
