Cinque Terre, Italy

Hello all...

Cinque Terre. The most rewarding but most difficult hike in this series. The small group of towns fall along the coast of Italy and mainly consist of small fishing villages which still operate traditionally with a growing tourist influx over the many years. The Towns are situated on very steep terrain and thus making this the hardest hike of them all. The walk begins at about 6:30am and nearly finished around 7pm (With a lot of breaks), the track goes from road to dirt to suspended rope bridges and the all the rest in between. As the towns were situated along the track it was great to stop and have fresh fish and chips and some sightseeing before heading off again (which saved Alex and I from dying). The photos unfortunately only show the last moments of our trek.
