Registrations for the 2026 edition of the Sicily Volcano Trail are officially open!

This year, we are introducing a brand-new format — even richer and more exciting — limited to just 30 participants (athletes and accompanying guests combined).

The event will be a true “Trail Experience”: an exploration of Sicily’s volcanoes across 4 non-competitive stages. We will run every day, but without the pressure of the stopwatch. Throughout these four stages, we will take the time to admire unique landscapes and fully enjoy the pleasure of running together.

Participants will be divided into two or three pace groups, allowing everyone to experience the adventure at their own rhythm.

What’s New in 2026: A Complete Runner Wellness Program

The new format includes both practical and theoretical workshops focused on well-being and performance:

• Conferences on functional breathing for athletes
  • Practical Running & Yoga workshops
  • Workshops on the benefits of cold exposure
  • Yoga and relaxation sessions

A Total Immersion in the Volcano Trail Spirit

Staying true to the Volcano Trail tradition, the event will also feature many convivial and cultural experiences:

• Discovering Sicilian gastronomy
  • Local wine tastings
  • Access to a wellness center for recovery
  • Swimming in the crystal-clear waters of the Aeolian Islands
  • Watching the nighttime eruptions of Stromboli
  • Exploring the lunar landscape of Mount Etna’s summit craters

A Dedicated Program for Hikers

For accompanying guests and families (even those who don’t enjoy running!), a parallel trekking program led by a certified hiking guide will be available.

They will follow the same trails as the athletes in a shorter and more accessible version, allowing them to fully enjoy the volcanic scenery, reach the summits, and reconnect with runners at each stage of the Volcano Trail.

So, what are you waiting for?
See you in Sicily in October 2026!
