Cinque Terre - 15th to 17th of April 2008

Three hours northwest to the western coast of Italy is a small group of 5 villages known as the Cinque Terre. Cinque Terre translates to five towns, all of which are perilously stuck to the side a a very dramtic coastline. We stayed in the southernmost village, Riomaggiore. Due to the cliffs there are no beaches, but we had a stunning view from our "deck", the neighbours roof. Only accessable through a tiny window from our room.



The 5 villages are seperated by a 9km walking track, which we attempted before the weather caved in at the fourth village. Luckily a train runs through all the towns to take us to the fifth, and to bring us home afterwards.
