THURSDAY

FULL DAY: Trekking - The itinerary varies according to customer requests:

“Sentiero Blu from Casal Velino to Acciaroli”

Duration: 2-5h, moderate difficulty

This walk is a local classic along the southern slopes of Monte Stella. It starts from the agriturismo along a quiet path with splendid views, maintaining roughly the same altitude until it reaches the village of Celso. If you wish, you can take the historic route that descends through the green valley of the Mortelle stream, crossing it via an old bridge. From here a beautiful stone staircase leads to Celso.

From Celso, a path with spectacular views leads to the convent of S. Francesco and then to Pollica, which boasts a beautiful historic centre and a small castle. From here the route is almost entirely downhill; you pass through Cannicchio, a village almost unchanged over time, and cross beautiful Mediterranean scrubland until you reach the seashore. The walk ends along the seafront and through the streets of Acciaroli, a famous seaside village.

This route offers several variations: starting from Celso, you could opt for a detour to the village of Galdo or follow the watercourse to Pioppi, another seaside village with crystal-clear waters.

“Punta Licosa”

From Ogliastro Marina to San Marco di Castellabate via Punta Licosa… myths and wonderful landscapes make this an enchanting place! The Licosa promontory is where Cilento extends furthest out to sea. Its maritime charm comes from the sea breeze that makes the trees dance.

The name is linked to the myth of Ulysses: it is said that the siren Leucosia drowned here for love of Ulysses. When the sky is clear, the view stretches from the Amalfi Coast to Palinuro. With clear skies in winter and flowering broom in spring, this walk can be enjoyed in any season.

“Baia degli Infreschi and Costa della Masseta” (only in the months of June and September)

Length: 4.5 km

Duration: 3.5h

A dream walk with sea views to Baia degli Infreschi, an enchanting natural harbour with crystal-clear waters, reached along a scenic path through Mediterranean scrubland among broom, rosemary, carob trees and prickly pears.

One of the highlights of this walk is the opportunity to stop along the way at two of the most beautiful bays in Cilento, Cala Bianca and Baia Pozzallo.

Activity suitable for children aged 7 and over who are accustomed to walking in the mountains - Cost: € 23 per person (packed lunch included) - Minimum number of participants: 5

Forest bathing is an individual practice of reconnecting with nature that relieves stress, encourages relaxation and improves the well-being of those who practise it.

I will guide you through a truly unique experience!!

Hatha Yoga for Children

Children discover yoga as an enjoyable game: they can practise poses together, working and playing as a team, and many poses are inspired by nature and named after animals, flowers or features of our planet. Who hasn't heard of tree, cobra, downward-facing dog or mountain pose, to name just a few?

Yoga teaches them to maintain correct posture, manage their emotions, stress and anxiety, build self-esteem and improve memory, concentration, resilience and self-knowledge.

Yoga improves their relationships with peers, parents and teachers, and teaches them important values such as respect for themselves, others and nature. It promotes awareness and healthy development that guarantees a harmonious and mindful adult life.
