사르노‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 산길

Pass located between Sant'Egidio del monte albino and Tramonti, towns to visit and experience for their territory and their culture. Personally, I reached the pass once from Ravello and once from Corbara on the occasion of the 2023 Giro d'Italia.

The Forcella della Cava, at 822 m above sea level, can be reached by following the Sentiero Italia S12S. Very beautiful views. To reach it it is necessary to have hiking experience as well as adequate clothing and footwear.

This descent into the plains under Vesuvius, from the top of the regional park, is phenomenal. I would recommend climbing from Amalfi and through Ravello to zip down this descent for the full effect. Smooth road, lovely hairpins, astounding views, and not too much traffic. A hidden (?) gem.

Location Forcella della Cava (852 m).

Beginning of the path from the Valico della Foce. Taking the direction: - North we arrive at the hermitage of Santa Maria di Loreto (Roccapiemonte) - East we go up to Monte Caruso -West you go up to Monte Citola -South you go down towards Santa Lucia / Sant'Anna

From Bracigliano going up towards Forino, immersed in nature between hairpin bends, at a certain stretch of the route the panorama of Mount Piesco appears.

The Chiunzi pass is a pass in the Lattari Mountains that connects the Nocerino-Sarnese countryside with the Amalfi coast through the municipalities of Sant'Egidio del Monte Albino and Tramonti. Since ancient times, the pass has been an important communication route between the hinterland and the sea, even if the road, which connected it to the valley floor, was little more than a mule track (Via Mandrino - Sant'Egidio del Monte Albino) , known as the via delle tramontane. Confirming the strategic nature of the route, the pass is garrisoned by an imposing Norman tower, still in an excellent state of conservation, which may have been used both for military reasons (watch tower or garrison), and for fiscal reasons (customs post) .
