    Vesuvius National Park

    Vesuvius is an example of a fenced volcano consisting of an external cone, Monte Somma, with crateric belt largely demolished within which there is a smaller cone represented by Vesuvius, separated by a valley called Valle del Gigante, part of the ancient caldera, where during the eruption of 79 AD, the Great Cone was formed. Vesuvius is a polygenic and mixed volcano, consisting of lava of different chemical composition (for example trachyte, tephrites, leucitites) and formed by both lava flows and pyroclastic deposits.
