L'Etna en Sicile, appelée localement "Mongibello", est le volcan le plus grand et le plus actif d'Europe. Ses fréquentes éruptions sont souvent accompagnées de grandes coulées de lave, mais elles ont rarement présenté un danger pour les zones habitées. L'Etna est l'un des volcans qui a les plus longs enregistrements historiques des éruptions, remontant à plus de 2000 ans.
Stratovolcan complexe Currently about 3329 m (changing due to eruptive activity and collapse of its crater rims)
Sicile (Italie), 37.75°N / 14.99°E
Condition actuelle: Activité petite ou avertissement éruption imminente (3 sur 5)
