Mount Etna is an active stratovolcano on the east coast of Sicily, Italy, in the Province of Catania. It is the Tallest active volcano in Europe, currently 3,329 m (10,922 ft) high, though this varies with summit eruptions. It is the Highest mountain in Italy south of the Alps. Etna covers an area of 1,190 km2 (459 sq mi) with a basal circumference of 140 km. This makes it by far the largest of the three active volcanoes in Italy, being about two and a half times the height of the next largest, Mount Vesuvius. Only Mount Teide in Tenerife surpasses it in the whole of the European–North-African region.

Mount Etna is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and is in an almost constant state of activity. It has been designated a Decade Volcano by the United Nations.  In June 2013, it was added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. 
Etna is one of Sicily's main tourist attractions.
