Sicilia's Pìcciolo Etna Golf Club is home to a well-rated and always popular golf course. On the slopes of Mount Etna, and with the evidence of lava flows never far away, this tree-lined and open parkland layout should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy.
