Walking through this splendid pine forest overlooking the sea and discovering a new cove each time where you can swim does not require special equipment: a pair of sandals and light clothing are enough.

October 13, 2024,Costa Cilentana da San Marco di C. ad Ogliastro marina

(Polar Recording)

Today, a hike along the splendid Cilento coast from San Marco di Castellabate to Ogliastro Marina passing through Punta Licosa.
A substantially flat route of 17 km between dirt roads, paths along the coast, stretches in the green pine forest and, if desired, an asphalt road as an alternative.
I had already done it at the beginning of …

A particularly magical stretch of coast between Punta Licosa and Punta Oligastro, according to legend, the siren Leucosia sought death here after Odysseus was not impressed by her singing.
The first half of the …

August 10, 2023,San Marco Cilento, Punta Licosa, Ogliastra

Fantastic ride in one of the most beautiful places on the coast. Especially the second part of the path from Punta Licosa to Ogliastro, completely immersed in a pine forest with beautiful views and outlets on the sea. Many possibilities of access to the sea with very few people even in crowded periods.
Unfortunately, when you arrive in Ogliastro, a …

July 3, 2025,🥵🥵🥵 Gruppo Italia...Traumhaft schöne Punta Licosa♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

We started early in San Marco, Marta's favorite trail, which the three girls weren't familiar with yet.

Once again, it was a wonderfully beautiful hike for me, through pine forests, always close to the coast and with views of the azure sea. Punta Licosa gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, and the hiking group persevered well despite the heat💪💪💪

Our fun "tour group" headed to San Marco early this morning. From the harbor, we set off for Punta Licosa. The path led us through the beautiful and fragrant pine forest, with the coast always in view to our right. It was a wonderful and successful day 🤗🫶🏼 and rightfully Marta's favorite path.
