From here we understand how small the affairs of the world are compared to the immensity of nature.

Medium difficulty itinerary for well-trained people.

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.

Route to Monte Somma from Santa Maria to Castello

Mount Pendulum, 618 meters high, has seen more than one cross placed on its ridge. The current one was inaugurated on October 29, 2022, through a blessing and the switching on of the lighting, which makes it visible at night even from very far away.

Mount San Michele or Mount Molare, with its 1,444 meters of height, is the highest peak of the Lattari mountains. Together with the nearby peaks of Monte di Mezzo and Monte Catello it forms a small complex called Sant'Angelo ai Tre Pizzi. Getting up here is tiring but the view is worth every drop of sweat. A true paradise on Earth!
