April 30, 2024,Il Sentiero Degli Dei Pad van de goden

What a beautiful walk above the coast, along narrow paths. Enjoyed an 8 km trip, the surroundings, the nature, the view. We did this walk at the end of April, there was already a lot in bloom and everything still looked fresh green.
The last part from Nocelle to Positano is tough because it is all down stairs. Tough for …

September 30, 2023,Wanderung an der Amalfiküste über den Sentiero degli Dei

Probably the most famous hike on the Amalfi Coast - the view on the way is actually great, but the popularity sometimes leads to traffic jams on the way because everyone wants to do this tour. The variant we chose with the 400m descent from Nocelle over endless stairs may not be the best - perhaps the slightly longer route …

'Path of the Gods' from Bomerano to Positano. Beautiful!

April 18, 2022,🇮🇹 Sentiero degli Dei

Beautiful path that starts from Bomerano and arrives in Positano along the coast. Part in asphalt (small part) the rest on dirt and an infinity of steps to go down. Gorgeous panorama !!! Stop at the Nocelle square not to be missed, as well as the lemon 🍋 and orange granita from the kiosk🍊. Challenging trekking not for everyone, but …

May 18, 2024,Da Bomerano a Positano Sentiero degli dei

The classic route we took from Bomerano to Positano is quite simple, done only one way (8km).
There are variations that can be followed both along the route and nearby.
For those who do it for the first time, I strongly recommend doing it backwards,
perhaps following some variant, stopping in Nocelle for a break and then returning, not continuing …

August 15, 2022,Sentiero degli Dei (de Bomerano a Positano)

Spectacular route where there are. We start in Bomerano (from Amalfi it is easily reached by bus), and from there it is almost all downhill. From Positano we returned by boat to Amalfi, although there are also buses.

October 9, 2022,Wanderung an der Amalfi Küste - Sentiero degli dei - Der Götterweg

We walked the trail on a Sunday in October. A lot happening. Next time I would take a taxi (rather than first bus) up to the trailhead and start earlier (about 8 or so).
When planning, also consider that there is no bus from Nocelle down to Positano on Sunday. We had to go down over 1000 steps (esp. 259 …

May 12, 2026,Von Praiano nach Arienzo

From Arienzo, we went back to Praiano for €1.50. We got the tickets at the tourist information.

It was worth walking down the additional 270 steps to Arienzo Beach and taking a wonderful refreshing dip.
