Pianillo Trip Overview
Hike above the Amalfi Coast where you can admire one of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the world. During your guided hike, we meet a local shepherd who will share with us a small selection of locally sourced produce and a glass of red wine. We start the hike from the hamlet of Bomerano in the town of Agerola. The first part of the hike offers stunning views of Praiano, Positano, Li Galli islets and the island of Capri. Along the trail, elm and oak trees provide shade with hints of myrtle and juniper in the air. The path continues crossing wild precipices full of caves and small vineyards. You’ll see the Grotta Biscotto, an old shepherd’s shelter, built into the rock and inhabited since Prehistoric times. We finish the hike in the small village of Nocelle (3 hours) and here your tour ends. Time to enjoy a well-deserved rest before choosing one of two options: walk down 1,500 steps and walk along the coastal road to Positano or take the local bus to Positano.
