Photo Gallery :: Volcanic Eruptions - Mount Etna, Sicily

 

Mount Etna is one of Europes most active, and most accessible volcanoes. On average there is an eruption most years - sometimes a very brief episode, sometimes lasting a year or more, and on occasions very spectacular. The Winster Cavers have been lucky enough to witness several eruptions over the years, and we share with you here some of our photographs of eruptions on Mount Etna.

Another photograph from Monte Zoccolaro of the Etna fire fountain in 2007. Here the fire fountain is really starting to get going - the ash cloud by this point is over 1km high, and growing.
