Vallo

Vallo lies among the hills of the Cilento, inland from the Tyrrhenian coast. The settlement developed on a route between ancient Elea and the fortified heights of Moio della Civitella. For centuries its small communities belonged to the lordship of Novi; Cornito and Spio later grew together to form the town. Stone houses and narrow lanes reflect the character of the inland Cilento, where hills separate the settlements from the coastal plain.
