Mount Scott is a high speed ascent and round trip trail run located inside of Crater Lake National Park.
This route begins at the far end of the Torre del Greco Wharf (Molo di Torre del Greco), winds through the town of Torre del Greco, and hops on the Via Vesuvio road all the way up to the entrance of Vesuvius National Park. Up to that point, the road is paved. At the National Park entrance (~14k and ~1000 m elevation) the paved road turns to dirt and brings you the rest of the way to the first look at the crater. Once you spot the crater, continue on the permitted path along the crater rim (due south).
