Description
A guidebook to 16 walks in Italy's Cinque Terre. Following age-old paths linking the UNESCO-listed settlements of this beautiful coastline, the routes involve moderate to steep ascents and therefore call for a reasonable level of fitness.
Walks range from 2 to 14km (1-8 miles) and can be enjoyed in 2-5 hours. There are routes starting from all five of the main villages - Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore - and all are accessible by public transport.
- 1:50,000 or 1:25,000 mapping included for each walk
- GPX files available for download
- Refreshment and public transport information provided
- Walks can be combined to create a 3-4 day trek across the Cinque Terre
- With notes on local history, plants and wildlife and cuisine
