Welcome to the site Napoliforme

Celebrated by the ancients, remembered by writers, poets and travellers from the eighteenth century to the present day with sentiment and longing, the Sorrento peninsula ("the land of the sirens", "land of classical sobriety, of limestone, of blue sea") is the triumph of nature in the alternation along the coast of beaches, jagged rocks, grottoes hiding fragments of ancient villas, and on the hills, around the small villages (i casali), the bright colours of citrus groves (the famous Sorrento lemons), vines, olive trees and an incredible variety of flowers.The itinerary starts from the panoramic square of Santa Croce a Termini, a hamlet of Massa Lubrense, and climbs up to Mount San Costanzo to visit the hermitage with the chapel dedicated to the saint, 'protagonist' of very popular processions. After crossing the suggestive area called Pezzalonga, it follows a stretch of Via Campanella, which according to tradition, like the tower of the same name, owes its name to the memory of a prodigy, to link up with the ancient Via di Minerva. The road, some of which still has its original Roman paving stones, approaches the coast, part of the Punta Campanella marine protected area, and reaches the medieval Punta Campanella Tower, one of the area's watchtowers and defences. From here, with a little daring and a lot of care, you can descend towards the Grotta delle Sirene, in a sea of unforgettable colours, where the suggestion of myth takes shape in the enchantment of nature.
