Overview
Located in northwest Italy, the coastal area of Cinque Terre, or "Five Lands," consists of five colourful villages perched on the cliffs of the Ligurian Coast (Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso al Mare), each with its own distinct character and charm.
The rugged coastline of the Italian Riviera is home to steeply terraced vineyards, narrow cobbled streets and some of the most rewarding coastal walking paths in Europe. The trails wind between the five villages along clifftop paths covered in wildflowers, with sweeping views of the Ligurian Sea at every turn. Fine local food, excellent wine and a rich cultural heritage make this one of the most complete walking experiences Italy has to offer.
Highlights
- Visit the historic Saviore Monastery believed to be the oldest Marian sanctuary in Liguria
- Climb the well beaten paths of the Colle del Telegrafo surrounded by natural beauty of the thick mediterranean scrub and pinewood
- Enjoy the local cuisine and famous dishes of the Ligurian region, best enjoyed on a terrace overlooking the glistening Mediterranean.
- Explore some of the less well known but equally stunning coastal villages of the Ligurian Riviera, all with panoramic views.
- Visit the lighthouse (il Faro di Portofino) at the end of the promontory in the jetsetter town of Portofino. From here, you can see the Ligurian coastline all the way to Tuscany.

Where You'll Stay
During this tour, you will stay in comfortable three-star hotels with a friendly and family-run feel along the Ligurian coast. Every room has a private bathroom and is equipped with the standard amenities you need after a day on the trails. Please note that between May and September, Camogli and the Cinque Terre are popular destinations, and we cannot always guarantee the specific accommodation listed. We work with several hotels of similar standard, quality and features, and will always provide alternatives when required.
As all walks start and end at the central points of the villages, making your way to and from your hotel is your own responsibility. Should your accommodation differ from what is shown in the programme, please make sure you are aware of your position in relation to the start and end of each route. Where changes are necessary, we will always choose alternatives in a similar location to those originally listed, keeping any adjustments to your routes as minimal as possible.
What You'll Eat
Each morning of this tour begins with an Italian-style breakfast, included throughout all seven days of the trip. Lunch and dinner are yours to discover, and the Ligurian coast rewards that exploration well. Your walk notes will include insider tips on where to find the freshest focaccia, where to taste local olive oil and wine, and handpicked recommendations for eating well along the route. The wines here carry a history that stretches back to the Renaissance, when they were considered fine enough for the tables of kings and popes.
Note: Please advise us of any food allergies or intolerances at the time of booking. If you have severe allergies, bringing some of your own snacks is recommended, as specialist ingredients can be harder to source along the way.
