Overview
A coastal walk linking five villages perched on the cliffs above the Ligurian Sea — vineyard terraces, pastel houses stacked above small harbors, and sea views for nearly the entire route.Well-marked stone paths connect each village, with options to drop down for a swim or a plate of pasta along the way. No technical terrain, no high altitude — just consistently beautiful coastline and an easy pace by comparison to the others.
