Cycle from the unspoilt and quiet Cilento to the UNESCO Amalfi Coast over 8 sublime days discovering this region of Italy. Cycling is a great way to explore the stunning natural and cultural treasures of Campania. This tour takes you through the best routes and contrasts of the region, from the relatively unknown and unspoilt Cilento to the popular lively Amalfi Coast. The Cilento National Park is largely undisturbed by the 21st Century and as you cycle through quaint fishing villages you will realise that the traditional way of life is still very evident.
