Before it was bought by the State Forestry Agency, it was known as Case Pappalardo, named for the last owner of the houses, which were built to serve the lumber business carried out there. They are located at 1219 metres and are one of the two natural access points to the middle area of Etna, starting out from the village of Maletto. They can be reached by private vehicle, although vehicles must be left at the barrier to continue along Trail 712, where motor vehicles are prohibited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Hiking Base Point, they can be reached from km 8 of the S.S. 284 road, following rapidly ascending municipal cart track turning south-east.\n\nWith an additional 4.3-km walk and overcoming a 408 metres difference of altitude, from Case Boscochiuso it is possible to reach the Pista Altomontana at an altitude of 1626 m and then hike along either North- or Southbound. The route consists of a small track for forest use, unfolding across a territory which remains unscathed by recent lava flows and therefore entirely covered with tall trees, featuring different species of oaks in the lower, warmer, part, and the increasing presence of splendid beech trees in the upper part.","post_title":"Fontana Murata \u2013 Pista Altomontana","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"fontana-murata-pista-altomontana","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-11-19 10:37:00","post_modified_gmt":"2020-11-19 09:37:00","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.unescoparcoetna.it\/sentieri\/fontana-murata-pista-altomontana\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"sentiero","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}]},"yoast_head":"\n
