What to see

  • Serra del Tuono, whose summit has a viewpoint overlooking the Gulf of Sapri and the Gulf of Maratea.
  • The nature trails at the foot of the mountain, best taken at a leisurely pace.

How to get there

The trails start from the districts of Medichetta and Carpineta, both reachable by car from Rivello. Before setting off, it is worth asking for directions in town.
