Ferriere Valley

This Tour that goes from San Lazzaro (Agerola) to Amalfi takes you through the Valle delle Ferriere Nature Reserve, a real ecological and historical treasure.

After a fairly steep first climb, the trail plunges you into lush, unspoilt vegetation. The walk is done in the soothing shade of the trees, to the sound of the waterfalls flowing into the valley.

Along the way, the architectural heritage is offered to you. You will discover remains of old paper mills which testify to the industrial past of the region. The ruins of old iron processing factories recall the metallurgical activity that once animated the valley.

This industrial heritage mixes with ancient and medieval monuments. You come across vestiges of medieval times, charming bridges and vestiges of old communication routes. All this gives a mystical and timeless atmosphere to this hike.

The landscape is a succession of striking panoramas. The majestic mountains provide a stunning contrast to the azure blue sea that looms on the horizon. The waterfalls and streams meandering through the valley add a musical and magical touch to this wilderness adventure.

In Amalfi, you will be greeted by the bright colors of the houses that cluster along the steep cliffs. Reward yourself with a moment of relaxation on the beach, before going to explore the picturesque lanes and savor the local cuisine in the restaurants bordering the sea.
