5 days, 5 paths, 5 different experiences to live at 360°: we will walk paths that will give us unique views of poignant beauty, from the coast of Palinuro, with the Path of the Towers and Fortresses, to that of Marina di Camerota with the Walk of the 4 Beaches; we will know the wild Coast of the Masseta and we will dive into the green waters of the Infreschi Bay, a real paradise on earth; finally we will reach the highest peak in Campania, Monte Cervati, at 1899 meters above sea level, to live a unique experience.
In the evening we will have an included dinner with typical Cilento produce in front of the crackling fireplace of the beautiful and hospitable refuge.

This challenging hike will introduce us to one of the most beautiful beaches of Cilento: the “Spiaggia del Marcellino” with a path that is sometimes tortuous and very overhanging. The descent is very steep but offers fantastic views, it is no coincidence that this panorama is called the panorama of the 4 regions, because it is easy, on clear days, to see 4 regions from a single point (Campania, Basilicata, Calabria and Sicily with the Aeolian Islands). Transfer back to our guesthouse and free time before dinner. Included Meals: Breakfast, Boxed Lunch, Dinner
This morning after breakfast we walk down to town, to start our beautiful itinerary that will take us to one of the most beautiful places of Cilento, the Infreschi Bay, a Protected Marine Reserve, a natural harbour on a stretch of coast totally untouched by human being. It starts from Marina di Camerota passing through the magnificent beaches of Pozzallo and Cala Bianca, the latter in 2017 awarded the title of the most beautiful beach in Italy. Between carob, myrtle, mistletoe and beautiful broom plants, the path takes us to the last destination of this fantastic journey, the beach of Porto Infreschi with its emerald waters, a veritable paradise on earth. Hike back to the guesthouse and free night. Included Meals: Breakfast, Boxed Lunch
This morning after breakfast we leave our guesthouse and transfer to Sanza (1 hour). In this last stage we will discover Mount Cervati that, with its 1899 meters, is the highest mountain in the Campania region. From the parking spot we hike through a beautiful beech forest, up to an altitude of 1597m, where we will find our friends Riccardo and Peppino, managers of the beautiful Casa Rosalia Refuge, waiting for us. After a short break, we’ll take our boxed lunch and our gear ready to leave for the summit, through a panoramic path that in less than 2 hours will take us to the church of the Madonna della Neve, located at the top of Mount Cervati, where we will have a wonderful view of the National Park of Cilento, Vallo di Diano and Alburni. After a break we will resume the path backwards and in an hour and a half we will return to the refuge for a comfortable shower waiting for dinner, consisting of strictly local produce.
