It is the perfect place to experience the quieter, more genuine spirit of Capri.

Mount Solaro rises above Anacapri as the island’s highest peak, offering breathtaking views over the Gulf of Naples, the Amalfi Coast, and the Faraglioni rocks. The most scenic way to reach the summit is by chairlift from Piazza della Vittoria in Anacapri, a peaceful 12-minute ride that glides silently above gardens and terraces. At the top, visitors find walking trails, a café, and wide panoramic terraces where the whole island stretches out beneath them. It is one of Capri’s most unforgettable vantage points, combining tranquility with spectacular scenery.
