The trails highlight all the best that the Amalfi Coast offers: panoramic views of the sea, bird watching, hidden coves, and the feeling you are walking among the gods, as its name suggests.

What is the best time to visit Positano

Positano has the best weather and the thinnest crowds in the spring (March to May) and autumn (September and October). Springtime brings beautiful flowers to the gardens and balconies, but in the autumn, the water is warmer after having been heated by the sun all summer long.

Summer is an overwhelmingly popular time to visit, but the accommodations are more expensive, dinner reservations are harder to secure, and the beaches are more crowded. The afternoon sun can also be too hot for activities like hiking and suntanning.
