/ Itinerary 26 – Sorrento – Sant’Agata via Zatri

Of the 4 itineraries for Sant’Agata (Massa Lubrense), this one does not start from the centre of Sorrento but from circuit 22 (Villages of the Sorrento valley), at the crossroads Palomba / Cala / Atigliana where you enter Via Zatri just 40 metres further on.  Follow this lane for 1.3 km with an elevation gain of 175 metres until you reach Via Nastro Azzurro. The first part (pedestrian) has a gradient of almost 20%, the second (road) only 8%. 200 metres into the first part of the climb you will see an ancient limestone kiln on your left. The route continues through thick vegetation which even so gives you views of the Bay of Naples. When you come to the first houses, a paved road will lead you to the main road.  Continue straight ahead along the road which for the most part has no pavement. At the large junction by the entrance of the Due Golfi Hotel you will find a bus stop. The map also indicates the route from Piazza Tasso to the starting point of this itinerary.
