Path of the Gods for Families: A scenic walk to share, one step at a time

Path of the Gods with kids

You’ve seen the photos. The cliffs, the sea, the endless horizon. But now you’re asking yourself: Can we really do this with the kids? The answer is yes, if it’s done the right way.
The Path of the Gods is not a technical climb. It’s a panoramic walk suspended between sky and sea.
And with organized transfers and a local guide, it becomes a safe, well-paced family experience rather than a logistical challenge.

Guided hike Path of the Gods

Instead of figuring out parking in Agerola or juggling bus schedules, the day starts smoothly with arranged transfers.
No narrow roads to navigate. No worrying about how to get back from Nocelle.
No standing on crowded buses in the heat. You simply arrive ready to walk.
The hike runs from Bomerano to Nocelle, the easiest and most scenic direction.
The trail is about 7 km long and takes around 3–4 hours at a relaxed pace.
It’s suitable for families with children (from 10 years old) used to walking, thanks to:
✔ moderate elevation changes
✔ well-marked paths
✔ wide panoramic sections
✔ protected viewpoints
There’s space to stop, breathe, take photos, drink water, and let kids ask questions about legends, geology and nature. This isn’t a race. It’s a shared discovery.

Why family hiking Amalfi Coast can works?

Children don’t see “7 km”.
They see: cliffs that look like movie scenes, terraces carved into mountains, lizards sunbathing on rocks, boats far below in the blue sea.
With a guide explaining myths and stories, including why it’s called the “Path of the Gods”, the hike turns into a living adventure.
