The place
The historic route from Termini descends towards the Minerva headland, a lighthouse and archaeological traces. The return is uphill, exposed and without guaranteed water.
A headland reached on foot
Capri appears close across the channel, but the walking route is the real commitment. There is no road pickup at the point.
Start early in warm months and turn back before weather or fatigue removes the margin needed for the climb.
