Camping Internazionale Vulcano Solfatara

Solfatara and its shooting gas steams are among the best-known sights of the volcanic Campi Flegrei region, so famed that the volcano was a popular stopoff point for the elite on their European Grand Tour. Take a guided tour of about 45 minutes or amble around under your own steam to end up at the woodland bar. The ancient Roman city of Pozzuoli is six kilometres away and can be hiked to via the volcanoes. Its famed archaeological sites include the imperial baths; the temple of Serapis; the Acropolis of Cuma, one of the oldest in the world, and the Flavian Amphitheatre, the third biggest Roman amphitheatre in Italy. Day trips to other world-famed spots are easily sorted from here: Naples is half an hour's drive away, Pompeii 45 minutes and Sorrento within an hour and 20 minutes.
