Day Trip to the Cinque Terre

The Cinque Terre has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997:

Let yourself be enchanted by the beauty and variety of colors of these villages.

 

The Cinque Terre (5 villages):

Monterosso al Mare: the largest village with a long beach, famous for its lemons, anchovies and the famous wine “Sciacchetrà”.

Vernazza: Often hailed as the jewel of the region, its charm is a favorite backdrop for romantic weddings.

Corniglia: located above the sea, a very small village from which many hiking trails start.

Manarola and Riomaggiore are similar and very characteristic.

We recommend exploring the villages either by train or by boat. The villages are small and the parking lots are often located above the villages (detailed information at the reception).

 

Excursion Cinque Terre by train:

In our opinion, the easiest way to reach and explore these villages. This way of getting around offers the opportunity to experience the beauty of the villages and to travel from one place to another by train. The journey time from one place to another is around 5 minutes.

Start your day early. You will need time to visit all the villages. Enjoy the local dishes in the small restaurants or bars. (detailed information at the reception).

Excursion by Boat (Battello):

Discover the 5 villages by scheduled boat. Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of this picturesque coastal region. From the boat you have a unique perspective to experience the five picturesque villages. Enjoy the spectacular view of the colorful houses built into the cliffs (detailed information at the reception).

Excursion by private boat to the Cinque Terre:

Hiking in the Cinque Terre:

Buy the Cinque Terre Card for the hiking trails. Please note: The train ticket Moneglia-Levanto-Moneglia must be purchased separately; it is not included in the Cinque Terre Card.

You can walk from one village to the other. However, it is recommended that you find out whether the hiking trails are open before your visit.

Start your day trip directly from the Adults Only Hotel Villa Edera on the Ligurian coast. 5 minutes walk from Moneglia train station.
