Ravello

Start the damp morning in the main square's cafes before seeking shelter in the historic cathedral. At noon, admire the rain-washed gardens under the covered arches of Villa Rufolo. In the afternoon, the Coral Museum offers a dry and fascinating refuge from heavy showers. Conclude your evening in the warm, modern interior of the Auditorium.

On a crisp winter morning, the main square belongs almost entirely to the locals. At noon, take advantage of the sunny hours to explore the peaceful gardens of Villa Rufolo. In the afternoon, stroll towards Villa Cimbrone before the early sunset. After dark, enjoy the warm and inviting atmosphere of the modern Auditorium.

This bike tour is challenging but leads you to Ravello's hidden gems. We start with the climb to Torre dello Ziro tower. Back in town, we visit the historic Palazzo Confalone and the church of San Giovanni. The afternoon leads us to the quiet Monastery of Santa Chiara, far from the crowds of day tourists. We end the day relaxed in the main square as the golden light illuminates the coastal rocks.

Start carefully on the wet roads towards Torre dello Ziro, watching out for slippery stones and mud. At noon, the arcades of Palazzo Confalone offer shelter during your ride. In the afternoon, warm up in the quiet interiors of the historic churches. Arrive at the main square in the evening, where a hot tea awaits to help you dry off.

The crisp winter air quickly warms up your muscles as you ride towards the tower. At noon, enjoy the winter sunshine while exploring the historic residences without the summer crowds. In the afternoon, despite the cool breeze, the views near the monastery are stunningly clear. Finish your ride at the main square before the evening frost sets in.

You can reach Ravello comfortably by car. We start at the modern Auditorium and walk to Villa Rufolo. After lunch, we take a short drive to the neighboring village of Scala to enjoy its authentic atmosphere. The late afternoon belongs to Villa Cimbrone before we return to the main square. Ravello at sunset offers a magical view of Minori and Maiori deep below us.

Drive slowly on the rain-slicked winding roads to the Auditorium. At noon, keep your umbrella handy for the walk from the parking area to the famous villas. In the afternoon, expect dense fog and poor visibility in the mountain village of Scala. Return carefully on the wet asphalt to the brightly lit main square in the evening.

On winter mornings the roads are much quieter, enjoy a relaxed drive to the Auditorium. At noon, finding a parking spot near the famous villas is incredibly easy compared to summer. In the afternoon at Scala, the setting sun beautifully illuminates the mountain valley. In the evening, pay extra attention to unlit curves due to the early sunset.
