Various sightings of Vesuvius during my Ischia volcano trip, June 2019

Date of my Ischia trip: 31.05-07.06.2019 I didn't climb Vesuvius this time, but this famous volcano was my subsidiary goal. Main goals were exploration of Ischia volcano, Italy, visual and photographic documentation of Ischia fumaroles, lava domes and lava flows, climbing of Monte Epomeo. I managed to take few unimpressive photos of currently closed Campi Flegrei too. Photos from Ischia Porto and Procida Island plus from the plane. More photos will be added during next few days.

Monte Nuovo, Campi Flegrei, Italy

Cinder cone of Monte Nuovo formed during eruption in 1538, which lasted 8 days. The youngest volcano in continental Europe with very impressive (albeit heavily forested) crater. 26.04.2013.
