Vesuvi

Vesuvi (italian Vesuvio), es un estratovolcan situat pel Golf de Nàpols, en Itàlia, aperaquí a 9km a l'èst de Nàpols a una corta distància del litoral. Es un dels nombroses volcans de l'arc volcanic campanian. Vesuvi es constituit d'un larg còn parcialament enrodat per los bòrds ribassuts d'una caldera formada per l'esfondrament d'un estructura originala pus nauta.

Lo Vesuvi es subretot conegut per son eruption de l'an 79 que menèt al sebeliment e a la destruccion de las ciutats romanas de Pompèi e Herculan. Aquela erupcion ejectèt una nívol de pèiras, cendres e fums a una nautor de 15 a 30km, e escopiguèt lava e pèira ponça polverizada en quantitat de 1.5 million tonas per segonda, desliurant fin finala cent mila còps l'energia termica de la bomba atomica d'Hiroshima. S'estima que 16,000 personas defuntèron pr'amor dels flusses piroclastics idrotermals. Lo sol testimoniatge de l'eveniment consistís en doas letras de Plini lo Jove adreiçadas a l'istorian Tacit.

Vesuvi coneguèt dempuèi mai d'una erupcions e es lo sol volcan subre lo sòl europèu actiu las cent darrièras annadas. Es considerat uèi coma un dels pus perilhós volcan del mond pr'amor qu'una populacion de 3,000,000 personas vivon a proximitat e sa tendéncia a d'erupcions plinianas explosivas. Es la region volcanica pus densament poblada al mond.

Go there for the history, stay for the fantastic view! If you go in summer be prepared for a good uphill walk on sandy/rocky terrain on 35-40 Celsius! The explanation you get at the top is good

€20 will get you a bus ride up from Erculano train station and an entry fee. Beware, it's couple of degrees colder and windy up on the top, so bring a jacket in spring and autumn.

An excursion on the volcano Vesuvio is a unique experience. You can go up and reach the mountaintop, where you will be amazed by the breath-taking view on the whole gulf of Naples.

Mobile Internet works at the fence overlooking the valley. Otherwise the cafe/kiosk has a slow WiFi, and the people from the souvenir stalls sell theirs. 2020: Buy tickets in advance (Vivaticket)!!!

Great value for the bus trip from Pompei. Just €20 with a 1,5 hour walk up the mountain. Bar and food by the parking lot. A small store at the top as well.

El único volcán activo de toda Europa y uno de los más peligrosos del mundo! Se puede hacer un tour para subirlo(auto + a pie). Muchas historias detrás del volcán más famosos del mundo
