Excursion to Vesuvius

Escursione

If you stay in Sorrento you can see Vesuvius from a lot of place. And if you want to climb on the top? It’s very esay, also if you are not a good walker.

To reach Vesuvius from Sorrento by pubblic transport you have to take a  Circumvesuviana train and stop to Pompei. From here you can take a bus. Bus stop 200m from station and outside tourist information.

This is the bus schedule from Pompeii Station from Vesuvius:

7:55 - 8:55 - 9:25 - 10:10 - 10:25 - 11:20 - 12:20 - 13:15 - 14:25 - 15:25

And this is the schedule to come back from Vesuvius to Pompeii Station

9:10 - 10:25 - 11:05 - 11:40 - 12:05 - 12:55 - 13.55 - 14:55 - 16:30 - 17:40

The area around Vesuvius was officially declared a national park since 1995.   The summit of Vesuvius is open to visitors and there is a small network of paths around the mountain.

For to reach the crater of Vesuvius: there is access by road to within 200 metres of the summit), but thereafter access is on foot only. There is a spiral walkway around the mountain from the road to the crater.
The bus stop you at 1000 metre mark.  From there you have to buy a ticket to hike the crater of Vesuvius at the information office ( about 6 euro).

A volcanological guide will come with you on the top. From the ticket office to the crater the path is 860 metres long with an average slope of 14%. In about 15-20 minutes you’ll reach the  crater.
