You step onto a knife-edge ridge and the sea seems to lean in—turquoise opening north toward Capri, cliffs folding south toward Positano. The path runs high, a dirt ribbon through citrus terraces and scrub, the wind pushing shawls of salt-scented air up to meet you.

You step onto a knife-edge ridge and the sea seems to lean in—turquoise opening north toward Capri, cliffs folding south toward Positano. The path runs high, a dirt ribbon through citrus terraces and scrub, the wind pushing shawls of salt-scented air up to meet you.
The Sentiero degli Dei follows ancient mule tracks and farm trails carved on limestone benches. Geology here is coastal calcareous rock broken by gullies; terraces and dry-stone walls are human answers to steep slopes and centuries of subsistence farming. Local culture still orbits lemon groves, smallholdings and village stairways that connect families more than cars. Legends about gods and mermaids grew where sailors watched the cliffs from below; the name endures as much for imagination as for view.
Practically: the guided route from Piazza Capasso in Bomerano to Nocelle is about 7 km of mostly well-marked dirt trail, with gentle up of +184 m and larger descents if you continue toward Positano (optional 9 km total and ~1,700 steps down). Expect uneven footing, narrow ridge sections and intermittent shade. The excursion takes roughly three hours, led by an AGEM-authorized guide; public buses (SITASud) link Amalfi to Bomerano.
Bring at least 1.5 L of water, sturdy footwear, sun protection, and start early to avoid midday heat and crowds. The trail rewards steady pace with panoramic breathing spaces: cliffs that dare you to look down, terraces that show the human scale, and the constant, patient pull of the sea.
