  • Travel's Taste
    Travel’s taste YOUR LUXURY TRAVEL PARTNER IN ITALY www.italycreative.it Amalfi Coast Amalfi More about: things to know Coast www.italycreative.it Deemed by Unesco to be an outstanding example of a Mediterranean landscape, the Amalfi Coast is a beguiling combination of great beauty and gripping drama: coastal mountains plunge into the sea in a stunning vertical scene of precipitous crags, picturesque towns and lush forests. Most hotels and villas are open from March/April through October/November. The towns on the water with beaches include Amalfi, Atrani, Cetara, Furore, Maiori, Minori, Praiano, Positano, and Vietri sul Mare. Towns higher up on the cliffs include Agerola, Ravello, Scala, and Tramonti. Amalfi Coast is crossed by Strada Statale 163 Amalfitana (world-famous known as Amalfi Drive), a 50km (30 miles) stretch of road from north to south. If we take the two entrance points to the Amalfi Coast with Sorrento in the north and Salerno in the south, the road goes through the towns in this order: Positano | Praiano | Amalfi | Atrani | Minori | Maiori | Cetara | Vietri Sul Mare It's important to know the order as that would make exploring the towns a bit easier. The Sorrento to Salerno direction is more preferrable as, by being in the right lane, you are right next to the cliffs with no opposing traffic to block your view. There are no trains serving the Amalfi Coast. HOTELS selection Amalfi à POSITANO Coast www.italycreative.it Spread between four villas, each of the suites offers a unique blend of carefree comfort and careful attention to detail.

  • Water Events and Historical Flood Recurrences in the Vietri Sul Mare Coastal Area (Costiera Amalfitana, Southern Italy)
    The Basis of Civilization - Water Science? (Proceedings of the UNESCO/1 AI-IS/IWHA symposium held in Rome, December 2003). IAHS Publ. 286, 2004 95 Water events and historical flood recurrences in the Vietri sul Mare coastal area (Costiera Amalfitana, southern Italy) ELIANA ESPOSITO1, SABINA PORFIDO1, CRESCENZO VIOLANTE1, CHI ARA BISCARINI1, FIORENTINO ALAIA2 & GIUSEPPE ESPOSITO3 1 Istituto Ambieule Marino Cosliero, Calala Porta di Massa, intemo porto, 1-80133 Napoli, Italy eliana(5),gms01 .geomare.na.cnr.it 2 Archivio di Stalo di Avellino, Italy 3 Regione Campania, Napoli, Italy Abstract This study addresses problems pertinent to the municipality of Vietri sul Mare located in the southeastern comer of the Amalft coast (southern Italy). The physical landscape, the economic settlements, the social activity and the natural hazards characterizing this area depend particularly on water: meteoric, riverine and marine. Indeed Vietri sul Mare is located on a steep rocky coast deeply dissected by ephemeral water courses (the Stream Bonea basin) with human activities mainly developed on the narrow stream banks located at the base of steep sided valleys, or at the mouth of Stream Bonea. This exposes them to a high hydrogeological risk triggered by water events associated with heavy rain. Several historical sources report at least 22 flooding events for the Vietri area during the last three centuries, which caused severe damage. In this paper historical sources are combined with geological data in order to improve the mitigation of flood phenomena through the reconstruction of historical floods and the estimation of the associated risks. Key words flood; historical source; hydrological risk; rocky coast; Sorrento peninsula; southern Italy INTRODUCTION The study area is located on the southern flank of the Sorrento peninsula (Costiera Amalfitana), west of Salerno (southern Italy).

  • “Costiera Amalfitana” Va Da Vietri Sul Mare a Positano E Comprende 17 Comuni, Tutti Della Provincia Di Salerno
    CAPITOLO 2 - LA STRUTTURA DEL COMPRENSORIO 2. LA STRUTTURA DEL COMPRENSORIO 2.1 L’ARMATURA TERRITORIALE Il comprensorio che oggi viene identificato come “Costiera Amalfitana” va da Vietri sul mare a Positano e comprende 17 comuni, tutti della Provincia di Salerno. In effetti, nel versante amalfitano della penisola sorrentina ricadono anche una parte del territorio di Massalubrense e l’intero territorio di Agerola. L’uno e l’altro comune sono inclusi nella provincia di Napoli. Al di là dell’appartenenza amministrativa, tuttavia, va rilevato che solo Agerola può considerarsi parte del comprensorio amalfitano. Il territorio di Massalubrense ha sempre gravitato, invece, su Sorrento. Il territorio della Costiera impegna quasi per intero il versante meridionale della catena dei Lattari. L’orografia è caratterizzata da vette che superano di poco i 1.000 metri (Monte Cerreto, 1.315; Monte Pertuso, 1.139). Dal crinale dei Monti Lattari si dipartono numerose incisioni, alcune delle quali sono solcate dai corsi d’acqua che hanno reso possibile lo sviluppo (il Canneto, Il Dragone, il Reginna Major, il Bonea). Nonostante la presenza di numerosi centri urbani l’asperità del territorio non ha consentito che si sviluppasse una forte rete di relazioni territoriali, né interne né di collegamento con i comprensori vicini. Fino ad un secolo fa Positano e Vietri erano raggiungibili da Amalfi solo via mare. Le uniche linee di forza del comprensorio amalfitano erano costituite da una strada Costiera che collegava Amalfi a Maiori e da una trasversale che, attraverso il valico di Chiunzi, collegava Maiori con la piana vesuviana. In pratica, un territorio sostanzialmente chiuso, senza linee di forza interne, accessibile agevolmente solo via mare.

  • Services in Terraced Landscapes the Case Study of the Amalfi Coast
    107 *Antonia Gravagnuolo Evaluation and mapping of cultural services in terraced landscapes The case study of the Amalfi Coast DOI: 10.14609/Ti_1_16_5e Keywords: Terraced landscapes, Cultural landscape, Ecosystem services, Cultural services, Mapping, GIS. Abstract Cultural landscapes are a key resource for sustainable development. Among them, terraced landscapes are classified as “evolutive living” landscapes (UNESCO, 2012), an expression of the historical interrelationship between man and his territory. Currently many terraced landscapes are considered at risk because of the changed socio-economic conditions. The need for conservation and effective management of change of this exceptional heritage poses the question of identification of functions and complex values of the landscape, taking into account the needs, views and preferences of local communities. This study aims to identify the terraced landscape values and services based on the ecosystem services theory. It is addressed the issue of evaluation and mapping of cultural services in terraced landscape, with reference to the site of the Amalfi Coast in Campania. The categories of services have been evaluated with the involvement of the local community through a semi-structured questionnaire administered online. The integration of multi-criteria evaluation and spatial analysis in GIS (Geographic Information System) has led to the construction of maps of cultural services, which allow displaying the complex relations that link communities to the landscape. The tools for collaborative
