Meeting Point at 9 am, Ravello square; Return same place 4h excluding stops
This excursion is recommended from September to June.
The trekking tour begins in the center of the town of Ravello or Scala, we following the CAI 353 path. Gradually the panorama widens allowing you to embrace with a single glance the whole gulf of Salerno with the background of the Alburni and the Picentini Mountains. Below Ravello. In front of the Monte dell'Avvocata, Maiori and Capo d'Orso.
After a short stop, we continue past the ridge and then climb up high steps of rock. It looks back on the west wall that falls vertically for a few hundred meters and further down into the Vallone delle Ferriere Reserve. Continue along the ridge to the entrance of a very panoramic path that opens into a rocky wall: in some places it is very narrow and must be walked with extreme care in single file avoiding exposure.
After a hundred meters you head decisively towards the North East to face an ascent among the rocks, steep but safe, until reaching 1044 m above sea level the Belvedere Mustaculo. From here, after a look at the wide panorama, continue through an alternation of beech woods and mountain pastures to Piano del Ceraso: after fording the narrowest point of the river Scalandrone you reach the Refuge of Santa Maria dei Monti.
Completed a visit to the stone on which stands a white statue of the Madonna and from where the view sweeps over the east side of the Coast and the entire park of the Lattari Mountains, you return to the refuge for a food stop. Back in Scala by the same path.
