### **Day 1: Monterosso to Vernazza**

Begin in **Monterosso al Mare**, the largest of the five villages. Head to **Statua del Gigante**, a dramatic cliffside sculpture watching over Fegina Beach. From there, grab a creamy scoop at **Gelateria La Scogliera**, just steps from the sea, and enjoy it with your toes in the sand at **Monterosso Fegina Beach**, the region’s most spacious and lively stretch of shoreline.

Wander into the old town and visit **Parrocchia di San Giovanni Battista**, a striking 13th-century church with a striped marble façade and rose window. Then lace up your walking shoes for the **Sentiero Monterosso–Vernazza**, the scenic cliffside trail that rewards you with breathtaking views of vineyards, the Mediterranean, and charming rooftops as you hike to Vernazza.

Once you arrive, stop at the **Church of St. Margaret of Antioch**, perched elegantly over the sea. Stroll through the vibrant harbour at the **Port of Vernazza**, then climb to **Doria Castle** for sweeping views over the village and coastline. Cool off with a dip at **Vernazza Beach**, a small but scenic cove tucked between buildings. End the day with dinner at **Burgus**, a nice spot known for fresh seafood, pasta, and stunning harbour views.

### **Day 2: Corniglia, Manarola & Riomaggiore**

Start your day in **Corniglia**, the quietest and most elevated village, offering panoramic views with fewer crowds. Grab a refreshing treat at **Gelateria Alberto**, famous for its basil and lemon sorbets made from local ingredients.

Next, head to **Manarola** for postcard views from its famous scenic overlook. From there, walk to **Nessun Dorma**, a clifftop wine bar with bruschetta, spritzes, and unforgettable views of the colourful village spilling into the sea.

Wrap up the day in **Riomaggiore**. Relax on **Riomaggiore Beach**, a rocky but picturesque spot ideal for sunset swims and peaceful reflection. Before leaving, grab one last sweet treat from **Gelateria Sottozero**, the perfect end to a perfect day.[routePlacesList: non-text section]
