Vesuvius hike
(3 ours)

     

Naples is located near the largest and unique active volcano in Europe - Vesuvius. It is as business card of Naples, creating it’s unique image. At present, the volcano is in a phase of sleep, and while he is sleeping, we can admire it. But in order to look inside the crater it will be necessary to work a little bit, the height of the volcano is 1280 meters, from the height of 1000 m, the last part of the way, is a 20-minute hike to Vesuvius’ summit. But, up there, you will have breathtaking sensation from the beauty and from a little bit of fear. Unfortunately, this is one of the most dangerous volcanoes, which brought a sad but immortal glory to the Roman cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Stabia and Oplonti. In 79 a.d. the eruption was explosive, such eruption occurs every 2 - 5 thousand years. The last eruption was in 1944 with the outflow of lava, which filled the caldera and then overflowed along one of the ravine (рэвин) towards the villages. With a walk to Vesuvius you can visit Oplonti. Here is the villa and it is assumed that she belonged to Poppey, the second wife of Nero. Here you can see gardens, atrium, peristyleums, lounges, guest rooms, tricliniums (banquet halls), viridariums, thermae, kitchen, swimming pool, toilet. The villa was discovered in the 18th century, but systematic excavations began only in 1968. In the XX century, the monuments were treated much more carefully than in the XVIII century, and therefore the frescoes of the villa remained in place, and were not carried away to the museum, as happened with many Pompeian and Herculane. There are few visitors here, so you can inspect everything as plumbly as time permits.
Excursion to Vesuvius can also be combined with a walk through Naples - after all, the volcano is a symbol of this city! But can be also Pomeii-Vesuvius tour, Herculanium-Vesuvius tour, Vesuvius-wine and food testing tour.
