Capri is a walker’s paradise, full of incredible views and scenery, but most visitors never venture beyond the winding lanes of the island’s two towns, Capri and Anacapri. If you want to put some distance between you and the crowds and experience the sweeping vistas that have inspired visitors since the time of the Roman emperors, however, there’s no better way than to set off along one of the stunning walking trails that skirt the coastline and climb into the inland hills.

Here are five spectacular Capri hiking paths to get you started, though there are many more on the island. The terrain can be rugged so wear proper shoes and long socks (or pants) so your legs don’t get scratched if taking one of the wilder paths. The temperatures on Capri soar during midday and many routes are not shaded—don’t forget to bring a hat, sunscreen, water, and bug repellent.
