Via Francigena Fabaria - Tappa 12

Sentieri sterrati misti ad asfalto tra le lave, più o meno recenti dell'Etna portano oltre i 1.000m di quota per arrivare alla città di Bronte. Presenza di due rifugi, in cui sostare: Case Bosco Prato Fiorito e Piano dei Grilli.

Covering 20.1 km, this demanding trail is best tackled by experienced walkers in good condition. Budget roughly 4 hours and 28 minutes or consider splitting it across two days.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start. Follow the Fab-12 waymarkers throughout to stay on the official trail line.

As a Local Walking Network (LWN) route, this trail has a strong community character. It serves both regular local walkers and visitors discovering the area for the first time.
