You push off from Sorrento with the sea on your right and cliffs rising like stacked plates on your left; the e-bike’s hum turns hills into reachable curves and the spray-scented air dares you forward. The route slips through Piano di Sorrento and the Colli di San Pietro, climbs brief ridgelines for wide panoramas, then drops toward Praiano and the stepped houses of Positano.

You push off from Sorrento with the sea on your right and cliffs rising like stacked plates on your left; the e-bike’s hum turns hills into reachable curves and the spray-scented air dares you forward. The route slips through Piano di Sorrento and the Colli di San Pietro, climbs brief ridgelines for wide panoramas, then drops toward Praiano and the stepped houses of Positano.
This coastline is the result of tectonic uplift and marine terraces carved by the Mediterranean over millennia; Roman villas once dotted these cliffs and local fishing villages evolved into the cliffside communities you pass. Culture here is grounded in limoncello, narrow streets, and a rhythm set by tides and tourist seasons. Guides will point out sandstone outcrops, stair-lined alleys, and the practical architecture that keeps houses rooted to the cliffs.
Expect paved but narrow roads, short steep pitches eased by the e‑motor, and stretches where vehicles share the lane. Stops include a square in Praiano and the busiest section through Positano; you’ll have time to walk cobbled streets and photograph viewpoints. The tour suits riders with moderate fitness and basic bike-handling on traffic-shared roads.
Practical notes: wear a helmet, close-toed shoes, and sun protection; carry water and a light layer for coastal winds. Morning departures avoid the hottest hours and reduce traffic. Follow your guide’s pacing—battery management and traffic awareness are part of the experience. In three hours you’ll have traded stiffness for sea-air clarity and a clear sense of why the Amalfi Coast rewards slow travel and steady pedals.
