The trail connects two charming coastal towns at a steady pace, revealing the landscape that shaped this corner of Campania.

What to expect

The path winds through cultivated lemon orchards where the air carries the scent of citrus blossom (seasonal). You'll gain and lose elevation as the route follows the contours of the coast, moving between the two towns at an easy-to-moderate pace. Expect stone-paved sections, packed earth trails, and occasional rocky patches. Views open up repeatedly as you climb and descend, taking in the dramatic coastline and distant villages. Your guide shares stories about the orchards and local life as you walk.

Good to know

Arrange your own transport to Maiori or Minori to start; public buses serve both towns. Wear sturdy walking shoes and bring water. The trail suits most fitness levels but isn't suitable for those with spinal issues, pregnancy, or significant cardiovascular concerns. Lemon tastings can be added separately.
