Overview

Hike one of the most beautiful trails in Italy, the “Path of the Gods” on the Amalfi Coast. Enjoy the incredible panoramic views as you walk about 1,600 feet (500 m) above sea level. You’ll trek between rocky passages, lush Mediterranean vegetation, oak forests, and charming terraces leading to steep slopes.

You'll start in the city of Agerola at Paolo Capasso Square in the hamlet of Bomerano. You'll make your way to Lattari Regional Park and cross the small and scenic gorge of Pennino River along its charming wooden bridge. Continue along the path until you meet an open space at Biscuit Cave, where the trail begins.

Your end destination is Nocelle, a small community of Positano nestled in the slopes of Monte Peruso. The path is fairly easy here as you enjoy exceptional views over the sea. From Nocelle, you can reach the center of Positano by taking 1,500 steps down to the coastline, where you can enjoy a tour of beautiful Positano and some free time to explore the town.

Our hiking guide Elizabeth was spectacular. So knowledgeable, friendly, and made our hike even more enjoyable. We love hiking and the views were amazing, though the 1500 steps back down to Positano really did our legs in! So so happy we had this experience. Read more
