Terratetto plurifamiliare in Sant'Anastasia

The town sits on the lower northern slopes of Mount Vesuvius. Mount Vesuvius and the Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio are within 15 km; the park includes marked trails that reach the crater rim. The Gulf of Naples is the adjacent sea; shoreline towns between Pollena Trocchia and the gulf include Ercolano (Herculaneum), Torre del Greco and Torre Annunziata. The archaeological areas of Pompei, Ercolano (Herculaneum) and Torre Annunziata are UNESCO World Heritage sites and lie within the same radius. The area is part of the Naples metropolitan zone; Naples is the nearest large city with a major port, long-distance rail links and Naples–Capodichino airport reachable by road. Soils on the lower slopes are volcanic; local agriculture includes vineyards and orchards and the area is associated with Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC wine. The territory combines an urbanised coastal plain toward Naples with cultivated and forested volcanic slopes closer to Vesuvius; there are no ski lifts in the area.
