Con delle veline cosí in bella vista...

I was just about to start searching landscapes I like very much with a glass of Italian (white) wine, when I saw Alberto's hint that made everything clear at once. Some more fun on Google Earth gives Monte C..., 2015m. Adding an "n" makes everybody happy ;-) Cheers, Martin

Add this to you glass of wine: move with Udeuschle to the major one in the Umgebung, 2156 m, and push a bit the Sichtweite: you will see not only Capri, but also Corsica, with Monte d'Oro and Monte Rotondo (358 km the latter).

Thanks, Alberto - that should compensate for my recent experience of NOT seeing Capri from less than 100km (#33047)...

You will not believe, but for me a view featuring the Velino from this side is tightly bound to the mountains of Cilento.
A very well-known ski-mountaineer from Rome, Maurizio Casalini, used to organize every year a "Calata Barbarica", "descent of the Barbarians": ski-mountaineers from the Alps would join for once the locals in ascending Appenninic tops.
In 2008 the meeting between Barbarians and Romans was planned in Rosciolo, with the intention to climb the Velino from the south side. I did not like the idea to be a Barbarian descending by car, so I left the task to carry my Barbaric skis to others, and in Livorno I embarked to Palermo, from where I would cycle north, in direction Rosciolo... Constant bad weather slowed me down, and actually my tour ended after the snowy adventure on Monte Gelbison.
I never got to know Maurizio in the reality; after his premature death, some of his friends organized a ceremony at his favourite viewpoint, above the fabled Lago della Duchessa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-v-1We8k-M
(Fabled, but known to the majority of those few who know it only because of a famous "fake news" of 1978, announcing that that the corpse of Aldo Moro, assassinated ty terrorists, would be found in this lake)
As for Capri: if you want to take a memorable panorama of it, just climb to the Croce della Conocchia (40.64639/14.49842) from Moiano / Santa Maria del Castello, via a wonderful ridge. If you manage to be there at sunset, you will very probably tell the Augenblick "Verweile doch, du bist so schön!" BUt do not linger too long in conversation with the Augenblick, since the descent takes its good 1:30. However, from that top it is simple and safe - no real need to tackle the higher, but also trickier Sant'Angelo a Tre Pizzi.

@Alberto - You are triggering a small spoiler: Capri from the Tre Pizzi range is actually in the queue ;-) Unfortunately not at sunset :-( It will take a few weeks until I get there with the series.

@Giuseppe - thanks a lot for showing this. Just found to my delight that Cotento was already labeled in my views from Sirente.

Now somebody has to produce the panorama from Velino.

Dear Martin, I would love to go to Velino, but don't count on me. For me now it's too tiring ;-)
Some years ago...

I love your "snapshot introduction" of this fascinating panorama and the following view out into the vastness of this impressive mountain landscape - and it has triggered a discussion that is no less exciting, just the charm of our community, Giuseppe !!
