Select participants and date
Early-morning light carves the Amalfi cliffs into sheets of gold and shadow as a compact van eases out of Positano, air-conditioning whispering against the heat. You watch terraces and lemon groves slide by, the Tyrrhenian Sea daring you with a glittering promise below, while your English-speaking driver negotiates hairpins that look painted on the map. The drop-off is Bomerano—gateway to the Sentiero degli Dei—where the trail peels away from the road and the coast opens into long, cinematic views.

Adventure Tips
Confirm exact pickup/drop coordinates
Provide your hotel address and mobile contact so the driver can find you quickly—some Positano properties have confusing entrances.
Bring enough water
Bottled water is included for the ride, but carry 1.5–2L for the hike—there are limited refill options on the trail.
Expect uneven, steep sections
Wear sturdy hiking shoes with good traction; sandals or slick soles make descents hazardous, especially after rain.
Time your start
Set off early to avoid crowds and midday heat; late-afternoon light is beautiful but shortens safe hiking time.
