Large part of the Cinque terra '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 walks 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.
The 5terre represent one of the best preserved natural and semi-natural
areas of the Mediterranean. Historical and geomorphologic reasons
have forbidden excessive housing development and the creation of
major roadways (which instead are present inland in the Val di Vara).
Human activity and especially viticulture, have contributed to create
a unique landscape in which development of the typical stone walls
is so extensive as to equal that of the famous Great Wall of China.
All this, combined with the characteristics of a crystal clear sea,
of architecturally interesting locations, of a varied and extensive
network of paths (one of the most enviable in the whole Mediterranean),
makes the Cinqueterre an increasingly sought after location among
Italian and foreign tourists.
The only natural port,the village of Vernazza develops along the
Vernazzola stream (now covered) climbing up the rocky face of a
cliff, which hides the view of houses to those who come at it from
the sea. Very narrow, steep paths descend towards the main road
which leads onto a small square located facing the small port. Along
with the typical tower-shaped houses, which are also present in
Riomaggiore, Manarola and Monterosso, there are more architecturally
elaborate buildings decorated by portals and porticos, as a reminder
of the prosperity the village once enjoyed under Genoese domination.
