Top 6 Caves 포지타노 주변

A short distance from the Chiosse house, a little higher up the slope you can glimpse this beautiful Grotta dello Zoccolaro, so called in the past centuries, when it served as a shelter for pigs or sheep, also thanks to its considerable size, roughly 5 meters by 5 meters by 15 deep. We got there thanks to Francesco who created two paths, not very easy at the moment, to get there in ten minutes from the main path. Given the considerable spaciousness of the cave, it is also an excellent refuge in the case of sudden storms in that area which is quite devoid of shelter. The second name, that is Grotta del Cuore, comes from the shape of the entrance to the cave, remarkably similar to the shape of a large heart.

In this cave, in the area called Trina del Monte, Potecariello, the hermit from Massaquano who lived in the first half of the last century and who left many signs of his passage on our mountains, often spent the night. In this cave, unfortunately poorly maintained today due to the carelessness and neglect of men, he who loved beauty and art even in its absolute simplicity, left to posterity on the upper part of the entrance to the cave a beautiful "Holy Family" carved in the rock and then colored in a simple but lasting way.

The hike on the Sentiero degli Dei from Bomerano to Positano is a highlight on the Amalfi Coast. Breathtaking views accompany the path, which does not require a guide, but does require good shoes and plenty of water. After about 30 minutes, the path splits into a higher and a lower route, which later merge again. The destination is Nocelle, where you can fortify yourself with a refreshing lemon slush. From there, two paths lead down to Positano, either via Montepertuso or directly over hundreds of steps. Setting off early in the morning is recommended.

This cave is located right at the beginning of the Gods' Path.

In Lettere there is the Benedictine hermitage, or the place where the Benedictine hermit monks retired to pray, a place also known as the veins of San Benedetto. The hermitage offers visitors an incomparable panorama of the Sarno Valley and Vesuvius, as well as allowing them to enjoy an unusual view of the historic Castello di Lettere. Around the hermitage a series of small natural cavities were probably used by Benedictine hermit monks to pray, and a completely frescoed chapel was built in one of these. Unfortunately these frescoes have not withstood the neglect of time and acts of vandalism, but what remains of them shows that they dated back to around 1,000 years ago.

Named after its geologic formation, similar to the shape of a biscuit bread (typical product of Agerola): Cool cave and rock buildings clinging to the cliff hanging over the edge of the mountain when leaving Bomerano on the Path of Gods: great start.
