Synopsis

The Sunflower Cinque Terre guide is your go-to companion for walking the Cinque Terre and the Riviera di Levante, from colourful cliffside villages to centuries-old mule trails.

This indispensable guide has been trusted by walkers exploring the Italian Riviera for many years.

The Riviera di Levante, between Genoa and La Spezia, has become one of Italy's most loved trekking destinations over the last 30 years. The five Cinque Terre villages, with their colourful houses nestled against steep terraced slopes above the sea, are still connected by old cobbled trails that recall a coastline largely untouched by modern development — now protected as a national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This is a dedicated walking guide: nearly all the routes stay along the coast, since that's where most visitors want to explore, with a few hikes into the quieter Apennine interior. Sunflower's detailed maps point you to the best picnic spots along the way, with public transport covering access to the mostly linear trails.

What You'll Discover:
  • 50 Graded Walks – Long and short routes for all ages and abilities, each clearly graded so you can match your fitness to the right walk.
  • Topographical Maps & GPS Tracks – Detailed 1:50,000 scale maps plus free downloadable GPS tracks, ideal for tech-savvy hikers wanting extra confidence.
  • Picnic Recommendations – Idyllic spots along the way, perfect for a relaxed break with a view of the coast.
  • Public Transport Timetables & Online Updates – Easily link walks together, with the latest route information available after you buy.

À propos de l'auteur

Since 1983 people out walking in sunny climes have been relying on our ‘little blue books’ to follow the trails – and to make friends with other walkers. Sunflower started by exploring the Atlantic Islands, but has branched out: we still love islands – from the Azores to Zakynthos – but we cover many mainland destinations too, like land-locked Switzerland and the coastal Basque Country. All our guides have the familiar mix of car tours, walks and picnics. More recently, we introduced restaurants and recipes in our ‘Walk & Eat’ series, which explores around cities from Stockholm to Avignon.
