Overview

Take a walk on one of the lesser-known but most fascinating trails of the Cinque Terre. After a quick but engaging visit to the town of Vernazza, we will start climbing along the fascinating mule track towards the Sanctuary of the Madonna di Reggio (about 1 hour) at an altitude of 330 meters. During the climb, we will admire beautiful views of the Cinque Terre coast with its characteristic terraces supported by kilometers of dry-stone walls, where olives and grapes are cultivated to produce prestigious wines. In front of the shaded Sanctuary Square stands a monumental cypress (the oldest in Liguria!) and a majestic leccio. Before going down, we will visit the fascinating olive grove of Azienda Agricola la Bottega, where Ligure DOP extra virgin olive oil is produced. It will also be an opportunity to visit two cute ponies, which are the mascots of the farm. During the tour you can enjoy a glass of DOC 5 Terre wine accompanied by the typical Ligurian focaccia.

What’s included

  • Inside the olive grove or at the Sanctuary there will be a small refreshment based on our 5 Terre DOC wine, extra virgin Ligurian olive oil and typical liqueur, accompanied by typical Ligurian focaccia.
  • Each participant will be provided with a 0.5 liter bottle of water

Not included

  • Hiking shoes (mandatory to participate in the excursion)
  • Waterproof jacket
