A cold, clean wind lifts at the Santuario dell'Avvocata and the cliff breathes out the scent of lemon groves and salt. From the ridge the coastline unfolds—terraced orchards stepping down into villages, rooftops glittering, and the sea drafting white threads to the shore.

A cold, clean wind lifts at the Santuario dell'Avvocata and the cliff breathes out the scent of lemon groves and salt. From the ridge the coastline unfolds—terraced orchards stepping down into villages, rooftops glittering, and the sea drafting white threads to the shore. The hike begins at the Maiori landing beach and climbs roughly 6 km with 1,100 meters of elevation gain to Monte Falerio, ending where pilots rig the wing and the horizon opens.
The Amalfi Coast’s steep limestone formed as the Apennines met the Tyrrhenian Sea, producing sheer cliffs and panoramic ledges used for centuries by fishermen and pilgrims. Maiori and nearby Ravello carry traces of medieval maritime trade and villa gardens carved into cliffs—local culture still orients around citrus and the sea.
Expect about three hours of trekking on narrow, rocky trails with switchbacks and occasional stone staircases; trekking difficulty is medium–high. The tandem flight itself is typically ~30 minutes, launched by a professional pilot—passengers follow simple run-and-seat instructions. The experience requires moderate fitness, good balance for takeoff/landing, and adherence to weight (30–100 kg) and age (18–60) limits. Weather governs departures; flights are moved or refunded if conditions are unsafe.
Pack layers, sun protection, and secure footwear. Start early for cooler air and steadier wind; afternoons bring thermal activity and possible delays. On the ridge, the wind is an active partner—read it, respect it, and it will lift you out over one of Italy’s most dramatic coastal escarpments.
The meeting point is the port of Maiori; guides lead the group from the landing beach and handle transport logistics to the trailhead.
The hike & transfer portion is about three hours and 6 km with 1,100 m elevation gain; the tandem flight itself is typically around 30 minutes.
