Mount Etna

One of the most active and most studied volcanoes in the world, Etna is located in Sicily, Italy, near the city of Catania.  The last eruption started on 14 December 1991 in the Valle del Bove, a large bowl formed by collapse of the eastern flank. Lava erupted along a fracture system that had opened in 1989, and covered most of the southern part of the Valle del Bove. The eruption stopped on 31 March 1993 after 473 days. 

Etna is monitored by the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, which provides on-line information on the state of the active volcanoes in Sicily (Etna and Stromboli), it furthermore offers live-cam views of Etna

"Etna Trekking", an organization of mountain guides and tourist operators in Linguaglossa, offers two further live-cam views of Etna from south and from north
