Embark on the moderate Il Sentiero degli Dei, or "Path of the Gods," a 6.6-mile (10.7 km) hike with 1441 feet (439 metres) of elevation gain that typically takes around 4 hours and 6 minutes to complete. You will traverse varied terrain, from fragrant Mediterranean scrub and terraced vineyards to rocky paths and some paved sections. Enjoy continuous panoramic vistas of the deep blue Tyrrhenian Sea, the picturesque towns of Positano and Praiano, and the iconic island of Capri with its Faraglioni rocks in the distance.
This popular route often starts in Agerola (Bomerano) and leads to Nocelle, offering a predominantly downhill or flat trajectory suitable for most individuals with basic fitness. While the main path is generally gentle, sections along cliffs require surefootedness. From Nocelle, you have the option to descend to Positano via approximately 1700 steps, which can be strenuous but rewarding.
The trail earns its name from an ancient Greek legend, suggesting deities once walked this route to rescue Ulysses from the sirens of the Li Galli islets. This mythological connection, combined with its unparalleled natural beauty, makes it one of Italy's most celebrated hikes. You will also see vestiges of ancient architecture and cultivated terraces, remnants of a time when this route was the sole link between local villages.

Embark on the challenging Path of the Gods, a difficult hike spanning 12.1 miles (19.4 km) with a significant elevation gain of 3752 feet (1143 metres). This route typically takes around 7 hours and 47 minutes to complete. As you traverse the trail, you will experience varied terrain, moving through fragrant Mediterranean scrub, past ancient farmlands, and alongside terraced vineyards. The atmosphere is one of ancient beauty, offering expansive views of the deep blue sea and the stunning Amalfi Coast. Keep an eye out for the iconic Faraglioni rocks of Capri island in the distance, a truly memorable sight.
When planning your hike, consider starting from Bomerano, as this popular section of the route towards Nocelle is mostly downhill. Be prepared for a substantial descent if you continue from Nocelle into Positano, as this involves navigating between 1,700 and 1,800 steps, which can be demanding on your knees. Alternatively, if you choose to begin your journey from Praiano, expect a steep ascent of approximately 1,900 steps just to reach the main trail. Factor in these considerations to best enjoy your experience on the Path of the Gods.
The Path of the Gods is renowned for its unique perspectives of the valleys below and the captivating Archipelago of the Sirens. This trail offers more than just physical exertion; it provides a journey through a landscape rich with history and natural beauty. You will encounter a blend of Mediterranean flora and ancient agricultural practices, giving you a sense of the region's enduring heritage. It stands out as a quintessential Amalfi Coast experience, connecting you directly with the dramatic coastal scenery.
