[Trip Report] Hiking in the Aeolian Islands in Italy

[jartelt]

Hi all - my wife and I visited the Aeolian Islands in Italy on our honeymoon last year. I finally got around to writing up a report on some of the hikes on the islands and wanted to share. The islands are off the coast of Sicily and were formed by volcanic activity. Each island is a bit distinct and they all have volcanoes of varying age that you can hike on. Here is the full report I wrote and some images are below: https://backpackersreview.wordpress.com/trip-reports/aeolian-islands-hiking/
