The paths of Cinque Terre
Path nr 1 (length: circa 40 km, duration of the trip:
circa 13 h)
Path
n°1 connects Porto Venere with Levanto, and goes mostly
along the crest that separates the coastal slope of the
Riviera of La Spezia (the Cinque Terre) from the interior
one, that faces the greenness of Vara Valley and the Gulf
of La Spezia. The natural panorama of this area, between
the sea and the slope, is deeply signed by the work of the
"man" that has transformed the earth into terraces that
slope down to the sea in order to plant wine trees, olive
trees, and other horticultural species, in a place very
arid and steep. As this path is very variegated and charming,
it is certainly the most fascinating one: The sea remains
majestic on your left (if you start obviously from Porto
Venere), and it seems almost that you can touch the Apennine
chain, and the Apuan Alps with all the Tyrrhenian coast
until Livorno - a unique spectacle. The itinerary can be
certainly divided into different sections, and that is what
Tuttospezia.it has done for you, in order to give you the
possibility to appreciate this area that the Unesco has
defined as "patrimony of the humanity" even more..
