After the Via Francigena

After the Via Francigena, we're heading towards the Amalfi coast for awhile. Has anyone done/got information on hiking trails connecting Positano to Sorrento?

I've hiked in that area. The guidebook I used is Gillian Price's Walking on the Amalfi Coast, in the Cicerone series. Also, the tourist office in Positano has plenty of information on hiking and the trails in the area.

Thanks! The tourist office said there are no trails available from Positano to Sorrento, but Gillian thought there may be a way to combine some of her maps with a road (shudder) map, so I'm taking a look at that.

You can't go wrong there. I actually did all my hiking in the area below Positano, i.e. towards Amalfi and Ravello and beyond. All the towns are absolute zoos, but I rarely saw anyone walking.
