Classic Amalfi Coast - 11 Days trip - alternative tour available

Classic Amalfi Coast - 11 Days

Self guided walk following the ‘Footpath of the Gods’ with time in Sorrento and the Isle of Capri. Take a spring, early summer or autumn walk along Italy’s stunning Amalfi Coast and in the Mezzogiorno –“The land of the midday sun”. On a self-guided hiking holiday, discover a land where the mountains, marquis pastures, lemon groves, vineyards and villages meet the sea. A place where you could be strolling on a rugged trail for one moment and then in the next be winding down through a citrus grove, then walk through a pleasant village towards the blue waters of the Mediterranean, gelati in hand. There is so much history, the Greeks settled here in the 8th century B.C. and looking down you can almost imagine the Argonauts rowing by enroute to tackle some Titan. The Romans came next, building villas around Positano and on Capri. Witness for yourself the destruction caused by the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in Pompeii (79 AD) on a day trip from Sorrento. In the early mediaeval period Amalfi became a major maritime city state claiming to have invented the compass and some aspects of parchment manufacture. Today, the town remains much as it was with narrow lanes and St. Andrew’s Cathedral dominating the scene. You walk through this spectacular region using the extensive web of footpaths and mule tracks that thread along the cliffs. A wealth of natural and cultural treasures can be reached relatively easily. On a series of self-guided walks, pass close to beautiful monasteries, caves and ancient farmhouses, visit nature reserves and ruins of paper mills, whilst enjoying spectacular views during all the walks. You'll also walk through the historic towns of Amalfi, Atrani, Ravello, Scala Praiano and Positano - all little pearls set in a fantastic landscape. Finish your Amalfi Coast walking holiday with walks on the Land’s End of the Sorrentine Peninsula, the marine nature reserve of Punta Campanella, and on the famous island of Capri. *You can also opt for shortened 6 & 8-day versions of this Amalfi Coast walking holiday.
