The
whole
experience
is
worth
sweating
yourself
out
to
get
to
the
top!
You
can
take
the
bus
from
Pompei,
right
next
to
the
train
station
(3€),
after
that
the
bus
gets
you
ALMOST
to
the
ticket
place,
so
you
walk
for
around
3-4
min
with
15°
inclination.
After
that
you
check
your
PREPAID
and
reserved
IN
ADVANCE
ticket
and
you
can
proceed
to
the
entrance
of
the
hike
route.
The
thing
that
they
don't
tell
you
is
that
you
HAVE
TO
GET
TO
THE
TOP
ALONE
in
order
to
find
your
guide
and
the
meeting
point.
At
this
point,
every
20
min
there
is
a
guide
speech,
that
inform
you
about
the
park,
the
volcano,
etc
and
then
you
continue
(without
the
guide)
till
you
walk
half
of
the
volcano's
corona
and
this
is
where
the
journey
ends.
The
view,
all
the
sceneries,
the
whole
adventure
is
amazing
and
it
is
worthy,
despite
the
odds
and
the
exhaustion
that
you
may
face.
There
are
2
points
where
you
can
have
something
to
eat
and
drink
and
after
that,
there
are
3
more
to
the
top.
Even
at
the
end
of
the
tourist
zone
there
is
a
very
nice
place
,
with
great
view,
where
you
can
sit,
eat
and
have
glass
of
local
wine.
There
were
a
lot
of
kids,
so
don't
hesitate
taking
them
with
you.
Just
keep
an
eye
on
them
the
whole
time.
Not
suitable
for
disabled.
There
is
an
ambulance
on
standby.
N.B.
Be
sure
about
the
bus
schedule,
because
if
you
miss
the
last
bus,
you
will
find
yourself
walking
down
the
whole
mountain
on
foot
(1.5
hours
appr.),
which
is
not
the
best
option
after
all
the
hiking.
