Stromboli — Local services in Lipari

A small volcanic island, known for thousands of years as the Lighthouse of the Mediterranean because of the regularity, reliability, and brilliance of its eruptions.

Stromboli is one of the few places on Earth that anyone can visit, on any day, with a high likelihood of being able to witness a volcanic eruption. Around every 20 minutes, one of its three summit vents blasts a fountain of lava fragments up to a height of 490 ft (150 m). These eruptions have been occurring for several thousand years and are so distinctive that geologists use the term Strombolian to describe similar eruptive activity at other volcanoes.

Visiting Stromboli. Roughly 3 miles (5 km) in diameter and 3,032 ft (924 m) high, Stromboli lies north of Sicily in the Mediterranean. A hike to the summit is permitted only in the company of a local guide. The eruptions can also be viewed from a boat off the island’s...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Un’esperienza unica al mondo

Il vulcano Stromboli è qualcosa di straordinario. Vedere le sue eruzioni continue, regolari e spettacolari – soprattutto al tramonto o di notte – è un’esperienza indimenticabile. Il fatto che sia uno dei pochi vulcani al mondo in attività costante lo rende ancora più affascinante.

Si può ammirare lo spettacolo sia dal paese, che dalla Sciara del Fuoco (in barca o da terra), oppure fare escursioni guidate fino alle quote più alte per una vista mozzafiato. Un mix perfetto di natura selvaggia, emozione e meraviglia.

📌 Imperdibile per chi visita le Isole Eolie. Stromboli ti resta dentro.

Hiking up and down the volcano will take nearly a day but its totally worth it. The landscape and views are amazing. Keep in mind that there is often fog at the top of the mountain around the crater because of the hot air condensation at that high altitude. But even if you cannot see the crater, you will hear it and feel it very close to you. It is...
