Walk the Path of the Gods on a private, guided trek across dramatic limestone ridges, then sit down to a family-style Neapolitan lunch in uptown Positano. Three hours of coastal panoramas, local history and a full-course meal make this an accessible Amalfi day trip.

A wind that tastes of salt and lemon meets you on the ridge, pushing you along the narrow toe of the Amalfi Coast. From the trailhead above Bomerano the sea opens like a blue road, Capri a distant island punctuation. The Path of the Gods doesn’t whisper—its cliffs call: step carefully, look often. Over three hours you move on ancient tracks carved into limestone, passing terraces that catch sunlight and the occasional fig tree that has clung to the slope for generations.
