Explore the natural and cultural wonders of the Amalfi Coast through a gentle yet rewarding hiking excursion that leads you to waterfalls and lush scenery. Starting with a scenic trek through the coastline, you’ll reach the Mills Valley, where an experienced guide will walk you through the region’s fascinating history, including the Ancient Republic of Amalfi’s industrial roots. Your path will lead through fragrant lemon groves and past the peaceful medieval village of Pontone in Scala, one of the oldest and most historic towns along the coast. After hiking for about an hour, you’ll encounter a junction—take the right turn to enter a tranquil nature reserve following the course of the Canneto River, where you’ll discover waterfalls, diverse flora, and unique natural surroundings. If you’re lucky, especially on a rainy day, you might spot the rare Salamandrina, an endemic amphibian found only in select habitats. After soaking in the beauty of this serene environment, retrace your steps to the fork and descend along a different trail that takes you toward Amalfi. As you return, pass the remnants of ancient paper mills once used to produce the famous Carta d’Amalfi, a historically significant handmade paper. Upon reaching town, stop by the informative Paper Museum to learn more about this cherished local craft. Before concluding your walk, pause to admire the grandeur of the Amalfi Cathedral, a final highlight of this immersive and enriching outdoor experience.
