Photo Gallery :: Lava caves of Sicily

 

The volcanic slopes of Mount Etna, Sicily, play host to several hundred lava tubes. The caves range from small cavities of minimal interest, to lava caves of over 1km in length. On our 2010 visit to Sicily, we made a special effort to visit, and photograph, some of the more accessible lava tubes. This photo gallery presents some of the results!

Two further skylights onto "Davide's cave". The through trip from the larger chamber can be done by the slim and masochistic, but it can best be described as uncomfortable due to the sharpness of the lava.
