Terrazzo Dell'infinito, Ravello, Italy 🇮🇹 The Terrazzo dell'Infinito, or Terrace of Infinity, is arguably the most famous viewpoint in Ravello, and for good reason. Perched dramatically on a cliff edge, it offers breathtaking panoramic vistas of the Amalfi Coast, stretching from the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea to the rugged mountains. Lined with ancient busts, the terrace itself is a work of art, inviting contemplation and offering an unforgettable backdrop for photographs. Visiting during the early morning or late afternoon can provide the best light and fewer crowds, allowing for a more serene experience. To fully appreciate the beauty of the Terrace of Infinity, consider arriving via a leisurely stroll through the charming streets of Ravello. The walk itself is part of the experience, offering glimpses of quaint shops, local artisans, and stunning architecture. Once you're there, take your time to soak in the views and truly absorb the serene atmosphere. It's a place that encourages you to pause and reflect, a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. For those planning a visit, be sure to wear comfortable shoes as Ravello is built on a hillside with many steps and inclines. It’s also wise to check the opening hours of Villa Cimbrone, where the terrace is located, as these can vary seasonally. Combining your visit with a exploration of the Villa's extensive gardens is highly recommended, as they offer numerous hidden gems and equally stunning, albeit different, perspectives of the coastline.

This far and no further? No way, the fun only starts at the source, because from here you can hike up to Monte Falerio (684 m), although it is also a steep climb.

If taking the path back to Amalfi there is one steep section with no barrier as the track has been rerouted around landslip. Caution and sticks are needed.

An early start improves the experience as you avoid crowds along the track and at the final waterfalls which are beautiful and worth paying the entrance fee.

At the beginning of April, the hike from St Lazarro to Valle de Ferrere was quite nice, but in comparison, not really recommendable. The forests are coppice forests, still leafless, only a few early bloomers and salamander larvae, a single orchid. In the end, at 3 p.m., we stood in front of a closed waterfall. That's a bit stupid. But understandable, hardly any people there. In some places, poorly signposted.

This last part of the path is home to magnificent waterfalls including a main one for which you have to pay a €5 ticket before accessing it. I highly recommend that you do.

Terrace of infinity is at the outmost edge of Ravello plateau. Astonishing view to the abyss below, and then just the blue sea and the blue sky all the way to the horizon.
