Santuario di Nostra Signora di Montenero to Monte Della Madonna
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.

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

Departure from Vernazza (La Spezia)
A beautiful walk offering a wide variety of landscapes between the coast and the ridges, passing through terraced farmland. Starting from Vernazza, the walk passes through San Bernardino before reaching the ridge at Sella della Cigoletta, then descends to Corniglia, the only village in the Cinque Terre not overlooking the sea. After visiting this unique village, the return to Vernazza follows the magnificent coastal path (SVA).
