Path of the Gods Small Group Hiking Experience from Sorrento
Walk the Bomerano loop alongside an expert guide for panoramic views of the Amalfi Coast
There's a moment on the Path of the Gods when the cliffs fall away, the sea view opens up, and your whole body remembers why you came to Italy. This hike is built around that moment. To kick things off, hop aboard a minibus from Sorrento up to Bomerano. Then, follow your expert guide on a 3.2-mile (5.2-km) loop past lemon terraces, shepherd cottages, and clifftops above the Li Galli islands before returning to Sorrento by bus. For active travelers, no Amalfi Coast view will ever feel as earned.

1
Your tour begins in Sorrento
Meet your guide in Piazza Tasso, beside the flags next to Hotel Excelsior Vittoria. After a quick check-in, you'll board a comfortable air-conditioned minibus and settle in for the scenic ride toward the Amalfi Coast. -
2
Ride through the coastal hills to Bomerano
Wind your way along curving coastal roads as the driver climbs toward the mountain village of Bomerano in Agerola. The 50-minute transfer offers glimpses of lemon groves, sea cliffs, and stone hamlets along the way. -
3
Set off along the legendary Path of the Gods
Step out in Bomerano, collect your trekking poles, and follow your guide onto the ancient mule track. The trail winds past lemon-scented terraces, abandoned shepherd cottages, and bursts of fragrant myrtle and heather. -
4
Take in sweeping views of the Tyrrhenian Sea
Pause at clifftop lookouts to watch the deep-blue sea meet limestone cliffs and spot the distant Li Galli islands. After completing the 3.2-mile (5.2-km) loop, the trail curves back into Bomerano for your minibus. -
5
Your tour ends at Tasso Square in Sorrento
Roll back into central Sorrento just as the late afternoon light hits Piazza Tasso. Step off the minibus near where the day began, ready to find a seafront aperitivo, a gelato, or a quiet bench by the marina.
