01Under the Columns: Exploring the Alcantara Gorges’ Basalt Cathedral
Nestled below Mount Etna’s reaches, the Alcantara Gorges are a narrow basalt slot canyon where lava meets river. Walk, wade, or canyon your way through hexagonal columns and glassy pools—ideal for photographers, hikers, and anyone who likes geology with a side of adventure.
