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 marvellous 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 significant part of the geographical regions of Cilento and Vallo di Diano, in the Province of Salerno (Campania).
This tour brings you all along the coast from Paestum to the Gulf of Policastro and takes in some bits of the authentic rural Cilento, full of olive groves and ancient villages. The inland of Cilento will bring you back in time, and you will encounter a few other tourists along your way. You will cycle along world-famous cultural sites, through pristine natural areas, and dreamy coastal scenery. This is a moderate tour suitable for all those 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.
