From Serrara Fontana there is a well-signposted path towards Mount Epomeo, the highest peak in Ischia at a height of 789 metres. The mountain slopes are covered in lush greenery and vineyards and affords views of the whole island of Ischia as well as Procida, Capri and the Gulf of Naples. The walk to the top can be difficult as it's quite steep in places and certainly not for the faint-hearted or unfit but certainly suitable to people of an average fitness level. The climb lasts between an hour and an hour and a half depending on your fitness levels and good walking clothing and footwear is essential. Once at the peak you can enjoy the incredible views and relax at the restaurant and bar at the top before making your descent. You can start the tour from the main square in the small town of Fontana which can be reached by either a CS or CD bus. You'll be at the right stop when you see the small church with a statue of Jesus Christ outside. From the church, cross the road and turn left towards a little of group of signs that point up the hill towards Mount Epomeo which is 3km away at this point. The rest of the path is well-signposted until you reach the summit.

Mount Epomeo is the highest mountain in Ischia and can be seen from most points on the Island. Standing 789 metres (2,589 ft), it towers above the rest of Ischia and is covered in lush greenery, with a few vineyards also occupying its slopes. Approximately 75 metres (246 ft) from the peak the mountain is covered in white lava.The entry point in Fontana is perhaps the best place from which to start your ascent of Epomeo, but be warned you must be reasonably fit to make it to the top.

For those who wish to hike, trekking up to the top of our volcanic island is the perfect activity! Take in incredible views of the island and sea, and grab a cappuccino and relax at the restaurant while taking in gorgeous panoramas. Recommendation: the climb can be steep in places, and is not recommended for those who are not in moderately active physical shape.
