Mention Amalfi and the first things that come to mind are the legendary Amalfi Coast, colorful houses perched on cliffs overlooking the sea, and the Duomo;  few, however, are aware of the nearby nature reserve of the ‘Valle dei Mulini’ o ‘Valle delle Ferriere’. It is a place that encapsulates both the wild beauty of the coast and its rich cultural history.

The Valley of the Mills is a deep crevasse located between the mountains of Scala, the oldest village of the Amalfi Coast, and the hills of Amalfi; it is crossed by the Canneto river and is part of the Monti Lattari Regional Park.
