Large part of the Cinque Terre's tourist success is due to their
paths and walks which curve round the coast or reach the sanctuaries
above each village. The view is breath-taking and anybody can
enjoy them: young or old. One can return from these hikes using
public transport, like the train, the ferryboat or the bus.
One needs only minimum equipment: shoes with anti-slippery sole,
long trousers to protect oneself from the thorn bushes, some
water and, according to the season, a large straw hat or a sports
jacket. And to end the day a relaxing, invigorating dive in
the water. All in all this is the ideal marriage of sea and
mountain.
