Country Walkers

Italy’s Mediterranean villages shine even brighter when walking is the only way to get there.
Arriving in a place accessible only on foot is every hiker’s dream, so your current spot overlooking Vernazza is as good as it gets. Directly below, tightly stacked pastel-hued houses rise from the harbor, all backed by the blue-green Mediterranean. You’re walking village to village through the Cinque Terre: five historic seaside towns linked only by train, boat, and trail. Following a former mule path cut between ancient drystone walls, you climb coastal bluffs, passing through olive orchards, lemon groves, and lovingly tended grapevines. Outside Corniglia, locals bear baskets overflowing with newly harvested grapes, and your thoughts turn to wine. Perfect timing. There’s a sunny enoteca terrace just round the bend, and the views couldn’t be better.
