Valle delle Ferriere
Amalfi and Scala, Italy

Valle delle Ferriere leads away from Amalfi’s busy waterfront into a lush valley shaped by water, shade and a distinctive microclimate. Its vegetation makes the experience different from the coast’s more exposed hillside walks. Choose it for a nature-focused outing that complements the town’s history of paper production, while keeping protected-area access separate from ordinary walking routes. Check trail conditions and any reservation requirements, and use suitable footwear for damp or uneven ground.
