️ IMPORTANT: This horseback experience explores Vesuvius's scenic volcanic slopes with breathtaking panoramic views. The ride does not reach the crater rim - we'll be riding at 400/500 mt high above the sea level!For crater access, we recommend combining your horseback experience with our Pompeii & Mount Vesuvius tours, or you can visit the crater separately via the designated hiking trail from the upper parking area. The horseback ride offers something equally special - a peaceful journey through volcanic terrain with breathtaking vistas that you simply can't get any other way!
