Positano is known in the world above all for its fame of tourism centre linked to the sea, but if you visit deeply the territory you can make interesting discoveries.

In the upper part of the village there is the street which brings to two places, at hill level, Montepertuso and Nocelle, which have all characteristics of places at high sea level: terraced gardens of lemon and grape gardens with farmhouses, woods, chestnut woods and above all paths. Just in Nocelle and Montepertuso, in fact, the final part of the famous “Dei path” arrives; it is so called for the breathtaking beauty of landscapes which sweep from Sele plain, near Paestum, as far as Capri isle.

Along the path it is possible to meet typical plants of these altitudes, departing from wood in the initial part of the route as far as maquis in the intermediate and final area, as well as religious architecture witnesses. In the lower part of Positano, instead, on the one side Mulini valley collects next to proto-industrial witnesses, naturalistic and fauna evidences typical of a humid environment, on the other side in “Vallone Porto” it is possible to visit one of the few naturalistic oasis where the high gradient of humidity and favourable wind drafts reproduce a small tropical forest with numerous plant species among which orchids and ferns or to meet amphibious normally only present at tropical latitudes.
