1. Monte Solaro

From Piazza della Vittoria you can take a breathtaking chairlift to the top of Mount Solaro, the highest point on Capri at 1,932 feet.

If you’re in Anacapri you must go on the chairlift and visit the mountain peak - if you are in Capri for more than a day it’s also easy to get to by bus from the Marina or Main Square. The views across the whole island are simply stunning, and reached by single seat chairlift which climbs the mountain. It’s so peaceful and calm and a wonderful experience (unless you have vertigo - it might not be for you!). You get to the top on arrival the views are breathtaking. You can see the whole island across to the mainland and even over to Mount Vesuvius. The return trip is well worth the €12 - I didn’t see the stairs or how you’d actually make the journey back down again....

Emblematic of the Dolomites and absolutely spectacular. The tour around the Tre Cime took us about 4hours of easy hike (although fully in the snow, and quite slippery) from and to the parking lot. Should be more like 3 hrs in summer. Incredible photo opportunities along the way. Yes parking access is expensive but so is maintaining infrastructures at this altitude. Must do.

Drive up the mountain pass and take a chair lift which brings you directly on top of this plateau and enjoy that beautiful panorama view which differs completely in every direction! The WWI open air museum right underneath the Cinque Torri spikes is an absolute must-do and will take you about an hour. Don't forget to have a drink on the mountain shelter's terrace and enjoy the view!

Sicily's greatest natural attraction is also its highest mountain: Mount Etna, at 10,990 feet, is the most active volcano in Europe and the oldest recorded active volcano in the world.
