This website host a virtual tour proposed in Lemaire et al. (2025) that showcases 5 volcanic landforms along the 1858 lava flow field at Somma-Vesuvius, in southern Italy. This lava flow field is a unique example of a typical effusive product, one of the few preserved lava flows on the stratovolcano. During the emplacement of lava flows, many structures form. These structures give insights into lava flow emplacement processes and emplacement history. Here on the 1858 lava flow field, three lava tubes, a tumulus and an ephemeral vent are described and linked together in an online interactive geoitinerary. Each of the five site was photographed using a 360° camera. The obtained 360° photos are shown in the Sites pages and allow a full immersion into the volcanic sites.
