Description
I talked with some people who said that the hike from Levanto to Monterosso in the Cinque Terre region of Italy was very pretty so I decided to give it a go, except I elected to go in the other direction. My choices were to climb steeply from Monterosso up to the ridge and then on to Levanto, or to first take a bus to someplace called Colle di Gritta and hike from there. I had a hiking guide that said the second option was longer, but the views were better. Since I wanted to take photos, I elected for ‘the views were better’ route. I was very happy that I elected that route since the first two hours I was quite alone in beautiful quiet and solitude, and the views were excellent! This view is of the town of Levanto looking northward. The blue of the Ligurian Sea is, as always, stunning! It isn’t hard to see why the entire zone of the Cinque Terre is called the Italian Riviera and has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site as well as a national park.
