Hotel to Amalfi, via Pogerola.

Although Amalfi is only about a mile from the hotel (if that) its still quite a walk as we had to descend about a thousand feet (300 meters). We went via Pogerola which is the nearest village to the hotel. This is a nice place with some friendly bars/cafes and a little hill-top park. The park was spoilt for me somewhat as someone appeared to have systematically destroyed all the path-side lights.

Through the trees towards the sea.

Approaching Pogerola. The hill-top park is above the domed church on the right of the picture. Most of the terracing visible below and between the buildings dedicated to lemon trees, but with some oranges, grapes and figs.

Some scenery.




Once we got to Pogerola the route continued down these well-made stairways to Amalfi.
