Ancient Herculaneum was located on a plateau overlooking the sea, with two streams bordering its east and west sides, and Mount Vesuvius behind it. According to mythical tradition, it was founded by the hero Hercules returning from Iberia, while the historian Strabo traces its foundation to various phases of occupation by various Italic peoples. Herculaneum rebelled against Rome but was definitively conquered in 89 BC, becoming a Roman municipality.

The "big" ticket for Pompeii is worth it! It includes access to two villas that aren't accessible with the express ticket, but are definitely worth it.

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.

TO visit, it is still possible to climb up one of the 4 towers for a view over the entire valley

Don't miss the side exhibition of the an old fishing boat just before the entrance to the site. Well worth the detour.

The villa was only excavated from 1990
