Tips from the Community
If you're cycling from north to south along the Cilento coast, this is the first real panoramic viewpoint. I recommend climbing up, avoiding the main road to avoid the bulk of traffic (there's a fork at the start of the climb). The view is worth the effort: beautiful.

Punta Licosa is a natural area of extreme beauty. It's a private estate, so access is sometimes restricted. From Ogliastro Marina, there's a gate with a guard, which usually allows bicycles and pedestrians to pass. From Santa Maria di Castellabate, however, access is unimpeded, both on foot and by bike. Here, you'll find one of the most beautiful Aleppo pine forests in southern Italy, as well as a wonderful avenue of carob trees. A truly enchanting place.

The small town of Castellabate thanks to the film Benvenuti al Sud has enjoyed strong popularity and has attracted many tourists in the last year. One of the most beautiful places to visit is certainly the Belvedere from which you can enjoy a sensational view of the sea.

Its toponym derives from the castle of Sant'Angelo, built by the abbot Costabile Gentilcore on the homonymous hill. After his death, the fortress was named by the local population after its creator, giving rise to the name of the village according to this etymological line: Castrum abbatis > Castello de lo abbate > Castello dell'abbate > Castellabate.

Castellabate is a special corner of Campania located in the province of Salerno in the heart of the Cilento National Park. The town is an ancient village of medieval origins which is not only included in the ranking of the "most beautiful villages in Italy", but which is also considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In fact, the city, located about 300 meters above sea level, is characterized by narrow cobbled streets, ancient buildings that hide elegant courtyards and terraces that can offer wonderful landscapes.
