Why should you travel to the Cinque Terre Region?

Cinque Terre - one of the most picturesque stretches of coastline in Italy stretches for just nine kilometers. The five villages of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore are the pearls of the Ligurian fishing villages. The narrow alleyways wind their way up the steep coastline, the little houses compete with the lush flowers in their bright colors. Enjoy small fish restaurants with sea views, a visit to the harbor of the fishing village of Vernazza, and experience nature at its most beautiful on hikes along the coast.

What sights are there in the Cinque Terre?

Monterosso al Mare

With around 1700 inhabitants, Monterosso al Mare is the largest of the five fishing villages in the Cinque Terre. It has the most hotels, restaurants, and stores and is also home to the largest sandy beach. Monterosso consists of an old town center and a new part. Worth seeing are the church of S. Giovanni Battista from the 13th/14th century and the Convento dei Cappuccini.More...

Vernazza

Vernazza is considered the most beautiful of the five villages with its old castle towers, waterfront piazza, and cliffs. If you want to see it for yourself, you can admire the best views from Monterosso via the cliff path. The narrow streets in the village are lined with colorful little houses, cafés and restaurants. The harbor is also worth a visit - best enjoyed with a glass of wine!

Manarola

Close together, under and over each other - the houses in Manarola have been squeezed into every little gap. The picture of the special village structure is absolutely worth seeing. If you want to enjoy the view of the sea, visit the Punta Bonfiglia viewpoint. This is just a short hike above the village center and offers a magnificent panoramic view.

Riomaggiore

Warm red and orange tones characterize the image of Riomaggiore. At sunset, the village almost seems to glow. There are numerous stores and cafés on Via Colombo that invite you to stroll and stop for a bite to eat. The bell towers and the Via dell'Amore, the famous coastal path between Riomaggiore and Manarola, are also well known.

Corniglia

Corniglia is special. Corniglia is the only one of the Cinque Terre villages that is not located directly by the sea, but on a rocky outcrop. From here you definitely have the best view of the coast. But you have to earn it: by climbing stairs!Less
