Mansarda in Giffoni Sei Casali

The cluster sits on the inland side of the Gulf of Salerno, with the Monti Picentini rising to the east and northeast. The Picentini Regional Park begins nearby and shapes the landscape of the upper valleys above the coastal plain. Salerno is the nearest city of size and has a full urban services base, port, rail links and the historic centre around the cathedral. The Tyrrhenian coast at the Gulf of Salerno is a short drive away, but this is not on the Amalfi cliff coast itself. The area is known for the transition from coastal plain to wooded foothills and for access into the Picentini hinterland.
