This guidebook describes 16 graded walks exploring the world-famous Cinque Terre villages of Liguria in Italy. The 16 routes take in the five famous fishing villages of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. The walks are suitable for both beginners and experienced walkers, describing the most popular pathways as well as less trodden routes to hidden gems.

For each walk there is a detailed description and an associated map, plus information on how to get around by public transport (train, ferry and bus). In addition there is background notes on history, culture, wildlife and flora, and suggestions on where to sleep and what to eat. In short, everything you could possibly need to get the most out of a holiday in this unique corner of the Italian Riviera.

Cinque Terre is a listed UNESCO World Heritage, and one of the best loved places in Italy. The area consists of a string of centuries old fishing villages where colourful houses, terraced fields and vineyards perch on plunging cliffs above a breathtaking coastline. It's a paradise for walkers and food-lovers, who can follow age-old routes constructed by the locals and sample the excellent seafood on offer at harbour-side trattorias.
