This 2.2-mile (3.5 km) route features varied terrain, including unpaved sections and established paths, with a minimal elevation gain of 157 feet (48 metres). You can expect to complete this scenic journey in about 57 minutes, enjoying sights like the iconic crescent-shaped Chiaia di Luna beach, its striking white tuff cliffs, and the Faraglioni della Madonna rock formations near the lighthouse.
