Unique Experiences on the Amalfi Coast: Excursions, Trekking and Adventures
Some experiences not to be missed on the Amalfi coast
A BATH IN THE WATERS OF THE FIORDO OF FURORE
Imagine a corner of Norway carved into the rocks of the Mediterranean: this is the Fjord of Furore. Also located on the Amalfi Coast, not far from Bomerano, this deep cleft in the Monti Lattari is a hidden treasure that has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997. The Borgo di Furore (from which the hamlet takes its name) is part of the prestigious Club of the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy is located 300 meters above sea level, at the top of the picturesque Vallone di Furore. A visit here is an immersion in the natural and historical beauty of one of Italy's most fascinating places.
And then stop for lunch at La Locanda del Fiordo typical trattoria with a view and very fresh fish. Make reservations well in advance. It also has rooms with sea-view Jacuzzis, but they go fast-in fact, I still haven't been able to find a free weekend to go back.
VISITA A VILLA CIMBRONE A RAVELLO
I have to admit, I arrived in Ravello without knowing much about what to see, guided only by some breathtaking photos seen on social media. Villa Cimbrone is one of those places that looks like something out of a dream: visitors can only explore the gardens, unless they stay in the elegant Hotel Villa Cimbrone. Although we had a car, we reached Ravello by a Sita bus.
Walk along the Avenue of the Immense, framed by a wisteria arbor which is a type of wisteria, until you reach the legendary Terrace of Infinity. The view is breathtaking which is why I took photos and video to share with you.
How to get there.
Consult the SITA website for details on schedules and routes, by bus, starting from the bus stop in Amalfi, from which most of the trips to Ravello depart. Admission costs 7 euros for adults, with reductions for children, and at the entrance you will be given a map to guide you during your visit
COLAZIONE DA "SAL DE RISO"
I have been dreaming of eating his cream babbà since before I went to the Amalfi Coast. Salvatore De Riso is probably the most famous pastry chef in Italy. He is responsible for the ingenious creation of the ricotta and pear cake with hazelnut cookie, a dessert whose success has transcended national borders.
It is located in Minori (always reachable by bus from Amalfi). This pastry shop is a true temple of taste. Spacious and charming, it offers a wide range of delights: cakes and single portions, ice cream, coffee, pizzas, as well as a bistro and aperitif area. Here all contact
APERITIVO A POSITANO
What to do in Positano if not an aperitif! Obviously on the terrace and with a view or on the beach. Do both. We liked the idea of taking in the breathtaking scenery overlooking the sea and the town's iconic colorful houses. And then we went and sat on the beach. Positano is definitely the most unique place on the Amalfi Coast.
You cannot leave without visiting its historic center, which is tiny but very quaint and can be walked through exclusively on foot.
However, in Positano if you feel like relaxing (especially after tackling the path of the gods) you can go lay down at one of the town beaches. The best known is definitely Spiaggia Grande, a true landmark of the town, Among these wonders are Fornillo Beach, a perfect retreat for those seeking an oasis of peace away from the crowds, and Laurito Beach, wild and intimate, enveloped in the intense scent of the laurel plants that surround it.
Per i veri appassionati di acque cristalline, degne di nota sono anche le calette di Clavel, Rammese e il Cavone, veri gioielli raggiungibili solo via mare partendo da Spiaggia Grande (pertanto qui bisogna avere più tempo a disposizione e noi ci torneremo appositamente). E poi c'è la splendida spiaggia di Arienzo, conosciuta come “dei trecento gradini” per la spettacolare scalinata che la collega al mondo. Grazie alla sua posizione privilegiata, qui il sole splende generosamente per gran parte della giornata, rendendo ogni momento un'esperienza indimenticabile
TREKKING VERSO LA BAIA DI IERANTO
Non l'avevo mai sentita nominare, ma l'ho scoperta facendo trekking ed è una vera bomba! La Baia di Ieranto, nel cuore della Costiera Sorrentina, è lontano dalle solite mete turistiche. Situata nell'area naturale di Nerano e gestita dal FAI (Fondo Ambiente Italiano) dagli anni '80, è un paradiso incontaminato.
Noi ci siamo arrivati a piedi, e anche se il sentiero è tosto, ne vale assolutamente la pena. Parcheggiate l'auto a Nerano e percorrete a piedi i circa 6 km di sentiero roccioso in discesa fino alla baia. Se non siete super in forma, meglio evitare.
In alternativa, potete raggiungerla via mare, navigando nelle acque cristalline del mar Tirreno partendo sempre da Nerano.
Una tips inserite la visita alla Baia di Ieranto in una giornata di escursioni in barca, magari con una tappa alla Cala di Mitigliano e passando per Punta Campanella, oppure partendo direttamente da Positano.
