What to expect

1

Furore

The long climb up to Agerola passes through Furore, a colorful village decorated with many artworks that can be seen at the roadsides, alongside several vineyards.

2

Fausto Coppi Monument

At the entry of Agerola, and the end of the long main climb, riders are rewarded with a viewpoint above Furore and a monument to the Italian cycling champion Fausto Coppi, who won a race doing the same climb.

Duration 10 minutes
3

Parco Corona - Bomerano

On a shorter half day ride, we can reach this other breathtaking viewpoint not too far, from where you can get a sight of Praiano and the Path of the Gods in the distance.

Duration 10 minutes
4

Castello Lauritano

One of the most gorgeous viewpoints over Amalfi Coast, this is a regular stop on the full day version of this tour, as it's also close to the restaurant for lunch break. However, it is possible in some cases to make all the way there on a half day ride too, by keeping up a good cycling speed and other stops to a minimum.

Duration 10 minutes
5

Belvedere Di Paipo

Another favorite viewpoint, this time facing Positano from above the Path of the Gods. This is an optional destination only for full day tours, as it requires a quite challenging stretch, so not everyone might want or be up for it. It's possible to decide on the spot, after lunch break, whether to give it a try.

Duration 10 minutes

The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
