Mt Vesuvius E-Bike Tour
Highlights
-
This tour is dedicated to nature and adventure lovers and will make you discover the particular charm of the sleeping giant: Mt Vesuvius. We will reach the valley at the foot of Vesuvius by van: the bike tour will start from there. We will cycle along the road that climbs up to the crater immersed in the characteristic and luxuriant vegetation of Vesuvius in an atmosphere of unparalleled charm and enjoying a breathtaking view of the valley below. As we get closer to the top the vegetation will become more and more barren until it completely vanishes. It will seem to be in a fantasy novel. Reached the top, we will leave the bicycles and continue on foot to the crater, walking along the edge. They will tell us about the geology of Vesuvius, the flora of the National Park and they will tell us the history of Vesuvius and the role it still has in the life of the population living on its slopes. At the end of the visit we will descend to the valley and return to the starting point of the van tour.
