Heel erg mooie, maar lastige trip, die leidt naar een echt hoogtepunt met een goede gids (Vincenzo)!

Vincenzo Giordano is a must request guide! From the moment we met at the Cathedral steps in Amalfi he made the entire experience an incredible memory - connecting local history with his knowledge of all the breathtaking views at every point in the hike. Grazie mille! Pam & Mark

Our tour guide was great. Very patient and informative. This is more than just a hike. It’s also an educational experience. Be prepared to walk up steep hills and a ton of steps. Wear good supportive sneakers.

De gids vertelde veel over de bezienswaardigheden en was zeer enthousiast. De toer is goed te doen. Is niet erg lastig. In het begin is het wat trapjes lopen en liepen we in de zon maar eenmaal in het natuurreservaat te zijn aangekomen was het lekker schaduwrijk

Complimenti per l'iniziativa svolta e per l'ottima guida che i ragazzi di Cartotrekking ci hanno fornito. La valle delle ferriere è un luogo fantastico che merita d'essere visitato. Un plauso speciale alle nostre due guide (Enzo e Vincenzo) che hanno reso indimenticabile questa giornata.

Our guide Michele was awesome!!!! He was so knowledgeable of the area and gave us so much insight. We walked by Lemon groves, and up to the abandoned paper mills that lined the river long ago. All that’s left of most of them are empty shells. Here you will find the only waterfalls along the Almafi Coast. This is why the pAper mills were built, the natural running water. Here too are prehistoric ferns o my found 3 places on earth, and petrified moss which was really cool to see. This trek is pretty strenuous and does a lot of climbing and retuning by a lot of stairs. It was well worth it to see this gem of the Almafi Coast.
