La Spezia walks

This is one of the most beautiful trails on the Cinque Terre coast. Passing through vineyards and forests with Mediterranean vegetation, it offers magnificent views at every turn with the sea as a backdrop. Fairly easy despite a steep climb at the start, it allows you to soak up the atmosphere of the Cinque Terre! (!) User comment 30-09-2025: there is a charge for the trail or it is included in the train ticket

Trail in the Cinque Terre region from Levanto to Monterosso, the first village in the Cinque Terre (near Genoa and Pisa in Italy), following the SVA trail closest to the coast. Levanto is one of the best places to visit the five villages by train and go hiking. This allows you to walk from Levanto to Monterosso without taking the train at the start. Return by train.

A surprising hike that avoids the Azzuro trail, which is currently closed between these two villages. Very challenging, as it goes from a steep climb to a dizzying descent. If you're afraid of stairs, don't attempt this hike!

This route takes you from Santuario di Nostra Signora di Montenero to Monte Della Madonna, over Monte Dei Fraschi, and back towards the road via Toretto. I stopped at Monte Della Madonna for a well deserved lunch break.
