Discover Procida walking: Itineraries and places to visit

1. Port of Procida

Starting from our resort and going up via IV Novembre, you will immediately find yourself in front of the most breath-taking view of the island, named after Elsa Morante. From here, continuing towards Via Pizzaco you will find a small glimpse of the sea and the descent that leads to the Chiaia beach. Moving towards the port, you will find many shops and small shops to accompany your journey, up to the so-called “Canalone” in Via Vittorio Emanuele. It is a pedestrian street, which will welcome you with the scents of the oldest bakery in Procida, the “Antica Pasticceria Cascone”, where we recommend a stop to taste a language of Procida!

The visit can only end at the port, where you will find the small Nutrimenti bookshop, which is also an independent publishing house, some art galleries and many typical products, obviously with a wonderful sea view.

Distance from the Resort: about 2,2 km. Time: 25 minutes. Difference in height: none; to reach the Chiaia beach it is necessary to go down a staircase of about 180 steps.

2. Corricella

Our resort is located a few minutes from the most beautiful and characteristic port of the island, the port of Corricella. A fascinating and scenographic place that houses the most authentic roots of the island. Upon exiting our blue door, turn right and go straight ahead and you will be there in no time! It is unmissable to go there for an aperitif or for dinner, but we recommend that you also go there in the morning, when the fishermen are getting ready to go fishing and the island is still sleepy and silent: you will feel like you have been brought back in time!

Distance from the Resort: about 1.5 km Time: 20 minutes Difference in height: none, but the port can only be reached by going down one of the 4 access stairways.

If you feel well trained, we suggest you walk to the ancient village of Terra Murata. It will be challenging, but the panorama that awaits you will compensate for any effort! To reach the promontory, positioned overlooking the sea, you will have to go up from the eastern part of the island via the Gradoni della Lingua, passing through the characteristic Casale Vascello. After passing Piazza dei Martiri, the road continues to climb towards the Castle and you can admire a postcard view of the port of Corricella. You have arrived in the heart of the first inhabited nucleus of the island, surrounded by a wall that served as protection against Saracen raids. Here you can visit the Abbey of San Michele and the Palazzo d’Avalos, a former prison of sixteenth-century origins.

Distance from the Resort: about 2 km. Journey time: 30 minutes. Difference in altitude: 90mt.
