What people love about Hiking & Trekking Tours in Italy
- Amalfi Coast Walking - Agriturismo
Lovely holiday, beautiful setting, good company, perfect walks and great food. The guide could not have been more helpful and managed to be both friendly and professional at the same time. I would recommend this holiday to others.,
- Amalfi Coast Walking - Hotel Risorgimento
I had a great time in this active trip called Amalfi Coast Walking - Hotel Risorgimento, and I would have given 5 stars if the description of the hikes were more correctly explained, or if of the difficult hikes were interchangeable with less strenuous days. The first three walks were very difficult, not “leisurely” as described. The Pino Gorge walk to San Lazaro of 5 kilometers, that took about 2 hours was nothing but easy. On our cellulars we recorded over 10,000 steps and 50 flors up. There were an equal number of floors down, and not easy at all. The steps were uneven, really high, broken, slippery and it was dangerous to take your eyes away from them. The afternoon walk was longer, and harder, being described by a fellow traveler as “Stairway to Heaven”. Next day, another walk on the Ancient Republic’s Path. This was more difficult than the day before. We covered 6 kilometers. The description in the itinerary states “a total ascent of 90 meters and a 755 meters decent. The health data on my cellphone showed 21,863 steps and 116 floors up. I regret I don’t have the exact number of floors we descended, but they were astronomical, considering the 755 meters of decent. The following day half of us were afraid to attempt the “Walk in the Ferreire NP” and missed that visit. Scheduling three days in a row long, three difficult walks was a mistake, and describing them as leisurely, or even moderate was not accurate. We are only people, not related to Superman. For the rest of the trip, visiting Ravello, Capri Island, Pompeii, Herculaneum, and ending with the Path of the Gods descent was great, but still not easy. I have to highly recommend the Hotel Risorgimento, were we spent a week. It was really impressive that in a small, not touristic town, to find such high quality place, excellent food, cleanness, present owners. We were treated as family, respected and made welcome. That was an excellent choice.
- Puglia and Matera Walking & Hiking Tour
My family and I had the best time on this tour. Stunning location, amazing food and the perfect atmosphere for yoga practice. Antonio took really good care of us, sharing his insightful knowledge of the area, and Susanna cooked the most delicious food for us. I will never forget her homemade vegetarian lasagna. Jairo was an incredible yoga teacher, always listening to our needs and requirements. The best yoga and cooking holiday in Italy!

When is the best time to go hiking in Italy?
Peak hiking conditions vary across Italy's diverse regions. Late spring through early fall (April to October) proves ideal for the Amalfi Coast with September offering clear skies and mild temperatures perfect for the Path of Gods trail. The Alpine paths of South Tyrol welcome hikers from May through September when snow has cleared and weather is reliable. Puglia's trails remain accessible year-round but visitors find the most comfortable conditions during spring (March-May) and autumn (September-October). As one TourRadar traveler mentioned: "May is a good time to go to Puglia as it's not too hot and the wildflowers are beautiful."
What type of accommodation can I expect on Italian hiking tours?
Italian hiking accommodations blend comfort with local character. Along the Amalfi Coast the Hotel Due Torri provides a swimming pool and regional Campanian dishes in Bomerano. Mountain lodgings like Hotel am Reschensee in South Tyrol put you close to the trails with panoramic views. In Matera travelers can sleep in converted limestone caves at places like Hotel Sassi. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "The hotel Due Torri was a comfortable haven to return to each day and the food was excellent."

Italy's regions deliver distinct hiking experiences. The Amalfi Coast presents seaside paths connecting historic villages while the Dolomites offer high mountain trails through traditional Alpine communities.

A TourRadar traveler shares "Each region had its own character - from the rugged coastlines of Cinque Terre to the rolling hills of Prosecco making every day a new adventure."
