Vesuvius National Park, Naples, Italy 🌋

Highlight • Volcano

The vulcano that destroyed ancient Pompeii in 79 AD: Italian national park centered on the active volcano Vesuvius, west of Naples. Founded in 1995 it covers an area of around 135 km². It is centered on the active volcano and its most ancient (now inactive) crater, Monte Somma. It houses 612 plant species and 227 animal species. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesuvius_National_Park
You can drive up near the rim and hike around the crater, some of it still steaming with active heat and vulcanic gases. Great vistas of all the surrounding areas that have been covered in ashes by previous eruptions over thousands of years, including Napoli and Pompeii.

Lava field below Mount Vesuvius

Highlight • Natural Monument

It will fail to reach Vesuvius with a tour planned by the komoot algorithm. We tried it. All paths through the national park were closed (September 2019) by gates. Only possible was the road. It is best to go by bus or rent a car. Hiking is obviously not (more) desired?
