What are the best months to take a self-guided tour of the Amalfi Coast?
The Amalfi Coast welcomes visitors best from April through October. September and October stand out as particularly good months with pleasant temperatures and smaller crowds at popular spots like Positano and Amalfi. The weather during these months stays comfortable for outdoor activities with temperatures ranging from 65-75°F making it perfect for walks like the Path of the Gods. Places such as Hotel Villa Fraulo in Ravello offer clear views across the coast during this period. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "We had a wonderful trip in late September - it was just perfect for us and everyone who took care of us did a fantastic job."
How difficult are the walking trails for self-guided tours on the Amalfi Coast?
Most trails take 4-5 hours daily at a steady pace of 3-4km per hour with difficulty levels ranging from easy walks to moderate hikes. The well-known Path of the Gods between Bomerano and Positano includes about 2,000 steps along with sea views. Trails through Valle dei Mulini to Ravello climb about 640 meters while the Praiano to Positano route follows cliffside paths.
