The Path of the Gods is a stunning trail that connects Agerola, a quaint village perched in the hills of the Amalfi Coast, to Nocelle, a charming hamlet near Positano nestled on the slopes of Monte Pertuso. Just the name, "Path of the Gods," conjures images of divine beauty, and rightfully so. This trail promises breathtaking views of the Amalfi Coast and the iconic island of Capri, especially if you start from Agerola and walk downhill toward Nocelle.
Your journey begins in Bomerano, a part of Agerola. Getting there is pretty straightforward: hop on a Sita bus from Amalfi and ask the driver to drop you off at Bomerano. Once you arrive, follow the road signs leading you to the trail's entrance. If you're feeling adventurous, you can also start from Praiano, but be prepared for a leg workout. There's a challenging flight of steps that will take you from sea level up to 580 meters at the pass of Colle Serra.
The trail is not just a feast for the eyes; it's a sensory delight. As you walk, you'll be enveloped by the fragrant scent of wild herbs and the gentle hum of nature. Keep your camera ready because every turn offers a new postcard-worthy vista. And if you time your hike right, the sunset views are nothing short of magical, casting a golden glow over the azure waters below. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or just someone who appreciates natural beauty, the Path of the Gods is an experience you'll carry with you long after the journey ends.
