We didn’t tackle the entire path — actually only a short portion, but it was well worth it. The views were spectacular! It is steep and those like myself with vertigo issue will find it quite challenging. Also, watch out for mule poop — lots of it! But even if you can only manage a few miles, it’s worth the trip.

Walked from Bomerano to Nocelle with my hubby and two kids (9 and 12) and we all loved the experience. Well marked path, fairly flat and straightforward but just challenging enough to be interesting. Amazing views, and lots of animals to spot (goats, pigs, some large birds). We almost missed the steps down to Positano (some confusing signs) but glad we didn’t. They are not as "bad" as reviews had me believe - it's more a gentle path downwards (albeit long) than a terrible staircase. We used Rainbow Limos (booked in advance) to get from Positano to Bomerano and while not cheap (what is on the Amalfi Coast) it was a comfortable, safe & fuss-free option.

Took bus from Positano to nocella, picked up the train from there. Walked little over half way then turned around and walked back. Stoped back in nocella for limon sorbet and bathroom. Then took the stairs down and walked back into positiano. Perfecto! From leaving our hotel to home was about 3 1/2 hours. Probably could have continued in further but the trail got busy with people coming from bomerano side so it was slowing us down. This trail is moderate to difficult at times but the views are worth it. Not for anyone with mobility issues, little kids it might be hard depending on what their used to.

This was part of a self guided walking tour with the Natural Adventure Company and it had amazing views of the Amalfi Coast. This hike is not for novices!! Hiking boots and poles are highly recommended and make sure you bring plenty of water and wear a hat as a lot of the walk is in direct sun. There was one point where you needed to scramble over a couple of large rocks (I am only 163 cm tall). I loved it and there were many hikers on the path both self guided like myself and a few small groups with guides. We hiked from Bomerano to Nocelles which with the inclines is probably much easier than from Nocelles to Bomerano. I am a fit 65 year old who walks 10-15 kms a day and I found it challenging in several places.

I've hiked this trail twice and enjoyed it immensely both times. Starting from Agerola to Positano and then from Positano to Praiano, the experience was truly spectacular. This hike is like gazing through windows onto the Mediterranean, offering immersive natural scenery. The path is well-maintained and clean. It does require a good level of fitness, but the breathtaking views make it well worth the effort

Pick a day when the weather forecast is favorable. We went in April when there were clear skies and 17 degrees C. Perfect! We took the SITA bus 5080 from Naples (Varco Immacolatella), which departs at 8.05 and arrives in Bomerano, close to the trail head at around 9.50. From there you walk through the village to get to the beginning of the trail and then admire the views for the next two hours. The hike is easy and slightly downhill. There are a few places with slightly steeper inclines and declines, although nothing frightening. Do bring water and snacks, particularly if the temperatures are somewhat high, as there are no places to get anything to drink (or eat) between Bomerano and your goal at Nocelle. Once in Nocelle, there are a few places to stop for a drink or something to eat. In order to get down to the shore, you can either take the stairs down to Positano (about one hour), or wait for the bus that takes you down to Positano every hour (at ten minutes til the hour, every hour) in twenty minutes. Buses leave Positano for Sorrento about hourly, and from Sorrento you can take the train back to Naples. This is a great full day excursion for the people who enjoy the outdoors. A guide is not necessary.

What a hike! I reviewed this trail heavily and some say it was beginner and some say it was moderately difficult. I think it was somewhere in between. We started from Nocelle and ended in Bomerano [a little over 4 miles one way] once you reach the endpoint its another 10 or so minutes to get into the small town of Bomerano. From there you can either take a 1 hour taxi back to Positano, Amalfi, etc. . [Gonna run you about 130 euro...] or, like us, you can grind out another 4+ miles and see a different perspective than the first starting point. There are many steps throughout the trail. There were a few tours we passed but we didn't feel it was crowded and it was overall a serene and beautiful trail. The weather was stunning going to Bomerano but cloudy and a bit chilly going back. We were happy overall with how the trip went but definitely sore the next day!

Picture-perfect views with rugged cliffs, the sparkling sea and those lemon groves - it felt like walking through a painting. The atmosphere of being on the mountains with an ocean view! The walk itself lasted 1.5 hours. Instead of continuing until Nocelle, our guide organised for us to walk a loop, with a traditional lunch lunch at the Shepherd's cabine. This felt like a different world. A refreshing lemonade awaited us, followed by delicious starters with local products, served with local wine and a homemade pasta dish. Before serving us a (proper) Italian coffee, the host organised music instruments for all guests present and we enjoyed some local tunes, creating a truly unforgettable moment of camaraderie and joy! Our guide, Gaetano, was the cherry on top! He is a true legend and his passion for the region is palpable. He conveyed his knowledge through anecdotes and his story-telling deepened our appreciation for the beauty and history of the Amalfi Coast.

Beware public organised tours as although not declared only walk half way to Cisternuolo and then back to Bomerano via the less exposed loop. Arrive early at Sorrento bus station to ensure place on bus to Amalfi, and even earlier to gain a seat as otherwise long drive standing. Ticket sales from kiosk at Rail Station. At Almafi the Agerola bus only evident few minutes before departure and again can be filled up leaving folk waiting for next bus. Full 6km route once found the start well marked, bearing left after circa 2km to follow the more exposed route, although none of the path that narrow. Few places with rock "steps" down and up but nothing too extended, unless have dodgy knees! Two options for lemon refreshments near and at end, with pricing €3 & €2.50. Trek duration less than 2 hours so long as not held up too much by the slower walking groups. If opting for bus to Positano don't descend stairs beyond the square (where are located the toilets and another lemon stall). Bus departure is hourly with official fare €1.30 although yet another lemon stall selling at €1.50! Best to ride the Mobility Bus to Sponda stop to have better chance of a seat on the Sita bus back to Sorrento, fare €3.40.

This hike is not for beginners or people who are not use to exercise. Yes, it does have some flat dirt parts but it’s the steep rocky spots with stairs that you will remember most. The ride on the bus to the hike (from Sorrento) takes an hour. They have a bathroom stop and place to get water and food when they drop you off. They break you out in groups of 12 to 14 and give you a guide. The hike with this tour is out and back over the same trail. More uphill on the way back. Your legs will get a great workout and your eyes will get an amazing view of the world renowned Amalfi Coast😎. Make sure to bring water and a walking stick👍 The only negative I have is our tour guide did not speak good English.
