14. SICILY – Etna, Nicolosi
Imagine skiing on a volcano while beholding the amazing sight of the Strait of Messina. No, we’re not kidding you, we couldn’t be more serious about it: Nicolosi is a ski station on Mount Etna; although it has only 5 slopes, there is no skipass to pay and well… you’re sliding down Etna’s snowy side, the bluest sky being one with the clearest blue Mediterranean Sea!
