Hiking & Trekking Tours & Trips in Italy
Hiking the Amalfi Coast's ancient limestone routes connects you with charming medieval villages and true beauty. The "Walk of the Gods" linking Bomerano to Positano gives you fantastic views across the Bay of Salerno the whole way. Up in the Dolomites, there's both gentle and tougher day hikes from Dobbiaco. Many tackle the Strudelkopf summit at 2,307 meters and explore the Three Peaks of Lavaredo circuit. Either way, it’s jaw-dropping.

Gaia our guide was wonderful . She was funny and very knowledgeable. I was thankful to be in a smaller group. The hotel staff were friendly and the hotel clean. I enjoyed drinks on the terrace. The hiking routes and accommodation was enjoyable. However, I couldn’t get a very clear answer from Tourradar when I enquired about the travel insurance I purchased. I tried a few times to obtain the information to give our guide and ended up spending another $180 on more insurance. Not sure I will use Tourradar again.

I can't say enough about Caspin Journeys. The hosts were wonderful and made us feel like family right away. So well organized and planned out. The views were incredible along the way and even though there was a lot of walking, the pace was comfortable. Every detail was planned perfectly. The food was outstanding, and the small group size made it easy to get to know everyone. Would definitely recommend this tour company to anyone thinking of going to Europe.

When is the best time to go hiking in Italy?
Peak hiking conditions vary across Italy's diverse regions. Late spring through early fall (April to October) proves ideal for the Amalfi Coast with September offering clear skies and mild temperatures perfect for the Path of Gods trail. The Alpine paths of South Tyrol welcome hikers from May through September when snow has cleared and weather is reliable. Puglia's trails remain accessible year-round but visitors find the most comfortable conditions during spring (March-May) and autumn (September-October). As one TourRadar traveler mentioned: "May is a good time to go to Puglia as it's not too hot and the wildflowers are beautiful."
What type of accommodation can I expect on Italian hiking tours?
Italian hiking accommodations blend comfort with local character. Along the Amalfi Coast the Hotel Due Torri provides a swimming pool and regional Campanian dishes in Bomerano. Mountain lodgings like Hotel am Reschensee in South Tyrol put you close to the trails with panoramic views. In Matera travelers can sleep in converted limestone caves at places like Hotel Sassi.
