The region of Campania in southern Italy is primarily known for its beautiful Amalfi Coast and the Sorrento Peninsula.
But Campania’s real secret is located south of Salerno and the wonderful Greek temples of Paestum. Founded in 1991, the Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park is the second-largest park in Italy. It includes a great part of the geographical regions of Cilento and Vallo di Diano, in the Province of Salerno (Campania).
This tour will let you discover the unspoilt coast of Cilento National Park, starting from the plain of Paestum, known for its impressive Greek temples, and continuing towards the little fishing village of Marina di Camerota in the far south. Along the route, you will be able to enjoy the stunning coastal scenery, wild mountain valleys and deep gorges, vineyards and olive groves. This is a moderate tour suitable for all who have some experience with bicycle touring and are in a good physical shape. On some of the inland stretches, you may encounter some steeper climbs. Average cycling time for the day is approx 5-6 hours.
