Etna returned today, * July 21, 2025 *, to show its liveliness with the resumption of the Strombolie * activity * of the Southeast crater, one of the most dynamic of the volcano. The explosions, currently sporadic and of modest intensity, are * clearly visible * from different observation points, offering a suggestive show.
What is Strombolie activity?
Strombolie * activity is characterized by intermittent explosions generated by the ascent of gas in the volcanic canal. It is a typical phenomenon of Etna and, although it can evolve in more intense activities, it often manifests in a spectacular form but * contained and at the origin from afar *.
Where can you observe safely?
The phenomenon is * observable in safety both on the north side and on the south side of the Etna *, in particular by panoramic points or authorized paths, always accompanied by volcanological guides. Visibility is excellent at these hours, also thanks to favorable weather conditions.
A signal not to be underestimated
The Strombolian phases represent one of the most frequent expressions of ETNA activity. They can * precede more energetic developments *, but they are also precious to monitor the state of the volcano and collect useful data. Today's event confirms that the southeast crater remains active and evolving.
