Collina dei Camaldoli, Highest hill in Naples, Italy

With an elevation of 457 meters, Collina dei Camaldoli extends between Naples, Marano di Napoli, and Quarto municipalities, featuring steep cliffs and wooded slopes.

The formation of this natural elevation dates back approximately 35,000 years, resulting from intense volcanic activity within the Phlegraean Fields region.

From its summit near the Soccavo district, visitors observe panoramas encompassing the Gulf of Naples, Vesuvius, Sorrento peninsula, and distant Pontine islands.

The temperature at higher elevations remains 3-4 degrees lower than Naples city center, making it a destination for snow observation during winter months.

The southern section presents steep tufa rock formations, while the northern slope displays a gradual incline covered with dense vegetation.
