Cingue Terre means 5 villages Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, Monterosso, and Riomaggiore. Today it’s a national park and protected marine area. You can visit Cingue Terre from Florence by train or taking day tour. There are several kind of day tour or trip that you can choose from local company. I choose to take Cingue Terre hiking trip because i want to experience something unique and take as much as i can to explore Cingue Terre.

We start by gather at Santa Lucia Station and get on the bus where they will drop us at the beginning of the hike. There are 2 guides that will lead us the whole day. We blend very easy among the guests, mostly they are from US and some from asian countries. The American, were so nice and friendly but sadly most of asian people put bad face and doesn’t bother to mingle with other. Frankly it shock me 🙂

MANAROLA

The first village we reach is Manarola. We pass the colourful houses and start walking on a narrow track along the cliff with only a simple wooden fence as the safety.

Continue our trip by train, the railway located just beside the sea so it’s really breathaking to see the view from the window. The ticket is available to use multiple time around the village, so keep it safe.

CORNIGLIA

Arrive at Corniglia and continue hiking. You can see how high we were by spotting the train rail track down there.

We stop by to have lunch at Ceccia Restaurant after walking around the houses. The food is absolutely delicious. Anti pasti with many kind of italian appetizer and the main course is pasta in pesto sauce. The pasta is so fresh omg i wish i can have that dish again. Lunch is included on tour fee.

After lunch we start the hardest hike. Many time we step on rough stone with a very high stairs.

Finally we reach the highest point. We reward ourselves with lemon slushy after hard hike.

The best view is right along this part. Dont forget to snap this iconic shot before you get down to Vernazza.

VERNAZZA

Vernazza definitely my fave among 5 villages. We spend time to have coffee while enjoy the splash of wave on the harbour. People usually can walk along the harbour but not that day, totally wild waves. Don’t forget to shop some souvenir here, it’s the right place to shop and enjoy every corner. Perfect to take OOTD or prewedding pictures.

Off to Monterosso by train. The stop is actually inside a cave, how amazing.

MONTEROSSO

It’s the biggest village among 5 more things to explore than the other villages.We take some food tasting here (not included on tour fee). My guide show us some local delicacies. I buy a special dessert name torta monterossina named after Monterosso. There are many stores selling stuff made of lemon.

You can see my picture of the beach is foggy, it’s because the wave is huge and form like a rain blown by the wind. The beach is empty, we didn’t spot any colourful umbrella maybe it’s still too cold the sit there. I was visiting on May. It look sunny but very cold and i didn’t wear any jacket so i’m freezing the whole time. Take this note, whatever the season, just bring jacket.

RIOMAGGIORE

The last village is Riomaggiore and it’s the place to take that iconic picture of Cingue Terre. You must find it. There are many shop, and one is gelato shop but i’m feezing so couldn’t eat it.
