Salt Spray and Ancient Steps is a journey along the hidden trails and cliffside paths of Italy's iconic Amalfi Coast. Through quiet villages, terraced gardens, and secluded coves, this book invites readers to experience the coastline beyond the well-trodden tourist routes. Walking these back routes reveals the rhythm of life along the cliffs where history, nature, and human ingenuity intertwine in breathtaking harmony.From Minori and Maiori to Ravello, Scala, Furore, Praiano, Positano, Conca dei Marini, and Amalfi, each village unfolds a story of resilience, beauty, and discovery. The narrative captures the physical challenge of navigating steep trails, the serenity of hidden beaches, and the wonder of panoramic vistas over the Tyrrhenian Sea. Written in a reflective, first-person style, this guide is as much about walking and adventure as it is about slowing down, observing details, and connecting with both the landscape and the people who have shaped it over centuries. Whether you are an avid hiker, a lover of history, or a seeker of quiet, immersive travel experiences, Salt Spray and Ancient Steps is your companion for exploring the Amalfi Coast in a deeply personal and unforgettable way.
