Join us from Maiori on the hiking route along the Sentiero dei Limoni or 'The Path of the Lemons', surrounded by the aromas of the Mediterranean while admiring the Amalfi Coast.
Tour Details
At the scheduled time, we will meet at Corso Reginna in Maiori to begin our hike along The Path of the Lemons, a panoramic road offering views of the Amalfi Coast.
We will start the route by visiting a pastry shop to taste a lemon dessert typical of the area. Energized, we will proceed to the church of Santa Maria a Mare, established in the 12th century, to admire its dome from the exterior.
Throughout the hike, we will observe typical terraces, known as macerine, where lemon trees grow, cultivated through traditional agricultural methods. Roman ruins will also be visible amidst the Mediterranean flora, including olive trees, vineyards, and pine trees.
Following a brief pause for freshly made homemade lemonade, we will continue to the village of Torre, noted for the church of San Michele Arcangelo, which produces the majority of lemons.
After learning about the village's history, we will head towards Minori, where the bell tower of the Basilica of Santa Trofimena, the patron saint of the village, can be seen. The history of her relics is significant.
We will conclude the activity in Piazza Ettore e Gaetano Cantilena, in front of the church, after approximately 2.5 to 3 hours of walking.
