Overview of the tour

Unusual Capri: Trekking among cliffs and coastal paths

This Capri tour focuses on getting away from the 'touristy' side of the island to discover its hidden natural and scenic beauty.

During the hike, those who walk with us will have the opportunity to appreciate Capri as an ideal place for hikinf, with extraordinary trails perched along the sea, featuring fascinating cliffs.

We reach Capri's square by walking through ancient medieval streets, then continue to Monte Solaro via the Passetiello Trail. One trail leads us to the Cetrella Hermitage and then to the island's highest point. During this walk, we will be immersed in nature, surrounded by the island's beauty, and we'll move away from the more touristy side of Capri because the island's beauty is not only in the famous square or its shops.
