TOP ACTIVITIES

Trekking

The Island of Capri offers some of Italy's best trekking routes, with its many paths leading you to hidden parts of the island where you can enjoy its marvelous nature and spectacular views. Bring your walking shoes and choose from a number of picturesque hiking options, as your guide will take you for a morning you will soon not forget.

​

How about a start with a pleasant walk along the narrow streets of Capri to Villa Jovis, where the Emperor Tiberius ruled the Roman Empire during the summer months? Or maybe its off to the Natural Arch and Punta Tragara, the best location to admire the Faraglioni, one of the most famous symbols of Capri. Don't forget the Augustus Gardens where Emperor Augustus spent his time during his holidays on the island, or the path up to the highest point on the island, Monte Solaro (587 meters) in Anacapri. 

​

Some of our favorite hikes include:

​

• The Phoenician Steps

Once the only connection between the port of Marina Grande and Anacapri, the Phoenician Steps are now a major attraction: 921 stone steps from where to admire the island of Capri in all its glory. Until only a few years ago, it was believed that the steps had been built by the Phoenicians (hence the name). However, recent historical research has revealed that the steps were, in reality, constructed by the Ancient Greeks, between the 7th and 6th century B.C. Up until 1874, the year in which the carriageway between Capri and Anacapri was completed, the steps represented the only connection between Anacapri and the rest of the world.

​

• Villa Jovis

Today we trek to Villa Jovis, built in 27 AD by Emperor Tiberius, who ruled the Roman Empire from here until his death 10 years later. Villa Jovis, the largest of the twelve Tiberian villas on Capri, sits on the second highest peak on the island, at a bit under 1100 feet above sea level. Yes, its one of the island's highest peaks, and one of its more challenging hikes, but the rewarding views make the trek to the top almost worth it!

Our hike starts with a pleasant 40 minute walk along the narrow streets of Capri, towards Villa Jovis and we can also walk by both the Natural Arch and Punta Tragara, the best location to admire the Faraglioni, one of the most famous symbols of Capri, which have survived coastal landslides and erosion by the sea. Then its back towards the center of the island, where you can visit the Augustus Gardens - the famous spot where Emperor Augustus spent his time during his holidays on the island. Entrance tickets for the Augustus Gardens are not included and must be paid on site, but they serve as a lovely end to this panoramic experience!

​

• The Hike from Above the Clouds

At almost 2000 feet above sea level, Monte Solaro is the highest and most panoramic point on the Island of Capri. From its heights, visitors enjoy sweeping views over the Faraglioni rock formations, the center of the town of Capri, and as far afield as the Sorrento Peninsula, the Galli islands, and the whole of the Gulf of Naples. On clear days, you can catch a glimpse to as far as the Gulf of Salerno.

For this hike you have options; the chairlift up from Piazza Vittoria can reach the summit in 12 minutes (tickets available on site), or for the true hiking enthusiast, the trail from Piazza della Pace all the way up to the top (the uphill portion is well marked and not overly strenuous) is about an hour. Once you reach the peak, you can relax with a drink on the rocking chairs at the La Canzone del Cielo cafe or simply stroll along the scenic overlook and snap pictures. Once you've had your fill of the beautiful view, we will hike down the mule track of the Cetrella Valley until reaching Viale San Michele. Together with its lush vegetation, this valley, dating back to the 16th C., is famous for the Church of Santa Maria, so tiny that it can easily be overlooked among the pines, oaks, and blooming orchids. Along the route towards the church a place of spiritual retreat for Domenican and Franciscan monks centuries ago you can view the craggy slopes of Mount Cappello, topped by an iron cross which can be seen from various vantage points around Anacapri, and the former home of the British writer Compton Mackenzie, one of the many historic personages who were drawn to the serenity and natural beauty of the island of Capri.

Once we arrive back at the historic center of Anacapri, we will pass blissfully unobserved as we saunter through the town's peaceful piazzas and bougainvillea and geranium festooned lanes. Piazza Vittoria, at the center of Anacapri, is also where the Via Giuseppe Orlandi begins, a pedestrian lane lined with artisan workshops, which winds its way right through the historic center of Anacapri. This is a hike for those looking for the best views of the island, so remember to take some photos!
