Daniele Corso

Hi, I’m Daniele Corso, an environmental hiking guide on Mount Etna. After spending several years abroad working in the tourism industry, I decided to return home and train to become a guide on the volcano. Since 2020, I have been leading over 1,000 people each year on trails I have personally designed. My goal is to experience the mountain, not just visit it—moving at a slow pace and with passion! The excursions I offer vary in difficulty, duration, and location. I choose less-traveled paths, far from the usual tourist spots, to showcase the hidden beauty of this incredible landscape. Inclusion and safety are essential elements that I always prioritize in my hikes!
