It was deserted when we were there, perhaps it's busier in the spring/autumn when it isn't so hot but I got the feeling they're never busy. Make sure you take plenty of water, there's nowhere to buy refreshments nearby. If you've got plenty of stamina you could combine this with the Villa del Casale mosaics for a heavy day's sightseeing.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19714 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19418 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19418 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13333
The first one in the Etna Park. Mount Etna is not only a volcano - it also has a lot of paths and trekking opportunities. The best ones are the excursions on the summit craters on the south side starting from Rifugio Sapienza in Nicolosi (Catania).

The second park is the Nebrodi Mounts. This is between Messina and Catania. This park is full of forests the most known is the "Bosco di Malabotta". The park is a little less accessible so it's advised to use a four-wheel drive vehicle and take a good map.

The latest park is the park of the Alcantara river. This is a river formed in a lava eruption thousand years ago. The river is walkable.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13333
