Cinque Terre - Hike in the Park, from Florence or La Spezia

This trip is the best way to get to know the Cinque Terre Park in one day only, in a different prospective: by train, boat and on feet. You will get to know the villages: Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore with their local cuisine, the pasta topped with the freshest pesto sauce or fish of the day. Experience the trails, through century old olive groves and vineyards, connected before the railway was created. Embarking on a moderate minimum 2-hour hike from Vernazza to Corniglia, tracing one of the most spectacular trails in the area. This seaside walk offers stunning views of the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. Lunch is enjoyed at a local restaurant in Corniglia ( located on a promontory is the only village without sea access. Unlike the other villages within the Park with seafaring pasts, quaint Corniglia has a history linked to agriculture), or in Manarola in a local trattoria with sea view. After lunch, time permitting; we continue our visit southward by boat or train.
