Trekking Ischia: Panza – Sant’Angelo
Trekking excursion to discover the spectacular views of the southwest side of the island
The trek begins at Cretaio, Barano municipality, in front of the riding school. We climb to Mt. Toppo, a green-covered volcano with a wide variety of vegetation. We find mostly Mediterranean scrub with scents of myrtle, mint and thyme.
We continue through a chestnut forest on the slopes of Mount Trippodi (502 m) until we reach Piano San Paolo, a high plateau where fossils of small crustaceans show the island's eventful geological transition.
We leave the forest and begin the descent with a full view of the Gulf of Naples, the Phlegrean fields, Vesuvius, the Lattari mountains and the Sorrento peninsula. This trail is called Buttavento, where we pass by a 100-year-old oak tree. Various cellars in the tuff show us the connection between man and nature. The hike ends in Buonopane.
