From Portovenere to Portofino, backed by the Apennines Ligurian, the Riviera del Levante is a true hiking paradise. An almost perfect combination of medieval and Renaissance influence, the five villages provide an unparalleled panorama overlooking the sea. Preserved from the main roads and only accessible on foot, the Cinque Terre is the result of the creativity of a community that has, from a challenging natural environment, created the conditions of a millenary agriculture.
Here are the details about this Challenge:
A unique and amazing landscape listed as a UNESCO World Heritage of Humanity site, Cinque Terre offers a magnificent nature trek. You will have the opportunity to visit the five villages that gave their names to the Cinque Terre and enjoy the majestic views of the Gulf of La Spezia and the surrounding islands.
