This is a perfect tour for who loves nature, culture and food! An easy hike in the most unique valley, surrounded by a gorgeous nature we discover the history of the Amalfi paper production and we enjoy a great lunch in one of the best farm to table. We walk into one of the most amazing valley following the Canneto river. The scenery is amazing, we are surrounded by a green environment and the clear water of the river jumps on the rocks creating lots of waterfalls and pools. This is the place where in the 13th century local people started to produce paper using cotton, a technique learned from the arabs. Along the way we find the ruins of the old abandoned paper mills, it's a unique example of industrial archeology in the south of Italy. The deepest spot in the valley is a Natural Reserve with the most spectacular waterfalls, a kind of rain forest, unexepted. It's a protected area where the "Woodwardia radicans" grows, a pre-historic fern that can be 2 meters long!
•The hike starts from the village of Pontone village (above Amalfi at 30 minutes driving) and goes downhill to Amalfi. •Passing through this village you have the feeling of a jump in the past because Pontone is not a touristic place, only 250 people lives in. It's not unusual to meet donkeys along the way carrying lemons or wood like in the past. •We continue walking to reach a natural reserve, where we can admire two spectacular waterfalls in a special enviroment looking like a rainforest. The water is all around you, all your senses will be energized. •Following the path to Amalfi we can have lunch in a special "farm to table" restaurant on a terrace overlooking Amalfi and the valley. It's a great place with special people •TECNICAL DETAILS: Walking time 3 hours Lenght 5 km ( 3 miles) Difference in level: 250 mt going downhill + 100 mt uphill Presence of regular steps up and down You need walking shoes with a good grip on the sole
