The ring of the Pista - developing within the state forest, along a service trail of the Azienda Foreste (Forest Department) at an average altitude of 1,750 m above sea level - surrounds the western and northern slopes of the volcano, offering hikers a fascinating view of the Etna Park's biodiversity and nature, of its forests, ancient and new lava flows, and of its most fascinating panoramic views.
