The Alburni area is a still unspoiled corner of Campania, defined by mountain landscapes, quiet villages, and a nature dominated by beech forests, crystal-clear springs, and plateaus that suddenly open up to wide and bright vistas. Postiglione is perfectly positioned for exploring this region, nestled on the slopes of the massif and surrounded by a peaceful environment.
Just a few minutes from the village, trails begin that lead to heights, caves, and viewpoints where one can admire the entire Sele Valley. Those who enjoy walking can find shady and cool spots even in summer, while those looking for a more active day can partake in activities like trekking, mountain biking, or simple hikes among waterfalls, streams, and open fields. The area is also known for its rich wildlife and the presence of various plant species, making the Alburni a small natural treasure.
The village of Postiglione retains an authentic atmosphere, with quiet alleys, ancient stone houses, and glimpses that reflect the region's rural history. Nearby, there are small restaurants and agriturismos where visitors can savor local cheeses, meats, mushrooms, chestnuts, and dishes that tell the story of the Cilento hinterland. Its proximity to the highway exit also makes it convenient for traveling to other local destinations, such as the Castelcivita Caves, the Certosa of Padula, the Sele River oasis, and areas within the Cilento, Vallo di Diano, and Alburni National Park.
This region encourages one to slow down, observe, and experience nature simply, perfect for those seeking silence, clean air, and a more authentic travel experience.
