360° panorama and place of worship with Sanctuary dedicated to <san <michele Arcangelo

The very panoramic itinerary allows you to enjoy the most suggestive and wild scenery of Somma-Vesuvius, crossing forest environments, scrubland up to bare lava rock. The starting point is located along the road that from the Medici Palace of Ottaviano continues towards the volcanic complex. A barrier prohibiting vehicular traffic marks the beginning of the route, the first stretch of the path, common with path no. 1, winds along asphalted hairpin bends, and then turns into a dirt path. The plant landscape consists initially of a thick pine forest of stone pine and then in a mesophilous forest, with essences such as chestnut, Neapolitan alder, Neapolitan maple, holm oak, black locust. Among the nesting birds, the minute lesser spotted woodpecker, rare and localized in Campania, has only recently colonized the Vesuvius Park. After more than 1 km of walking on a steep climb you reach Largo Angelo Prisco dedicated to the young financier murdered by poachers in 1995 which represents the closest destination. From the Largo, path no. 1 branches off to the left, while the itinerary continues on the right on a slight climb, entering, between twists and turns, into a shady chestnut grove where the numerous species of mushrooms present give off an intense and pleasant fragrance.

The water stone is located on the top of Monte della Guardia, 720 m, the second highest peak of Mount Epomeo.

Beautiful views from the panoramic point of Monte San Costanzo.

Definitely recommended. At the top you have a complete panoramic view of the island.

You should be lucky with the clouds, otherwise there will be poor visibility
