Route Climbed: Regualr tourist trail Date Climbed: August 1999
With Fred. Was fun - although I hardly consider this a real mountain, given the development. One takes the bus to the parking lot and hikes less than an hour to the highest point allowed. The bus ride down was scarier, because the driver let a friend of his, who had never driven a big bus, drive! He almost did not make the first curve. In return, they took us directly to Herculaneum - way more neat than Pompeii.
Since this volcano last erupted at the end of World War II, another more disastrous Pompei event can only be in the making.
