Overview

Take one of the lesser known but most fascinating paths of the Cinque Terre. After a quick but engaging visit to the village of Vernazza we will start to climb along the fascinating mule track to the Sanctuary of the Madonna di Reggio (about 1 hour) at 330 meters high. During the climb we will admire beautiful views of the Cinque Terre coast with the characteristic terraces supported by kilometers of dry stone walls, where olive trees and vines are grown to produce prestigious wines. In front of the shady Piazzale del Santuario stands a monumental cypress (the oldest in Liguria!) and a majestic holm oak. Before going down we will visit the fascinating olive grove of the Azienda Agricola la Bottega, where extra virgin olive oil is produced. It will also be an opportunity to visit two cute ponies, which are the mascots of the farm. In the shade of a pear tree you can enjoy a glass of DOC 5 Terre wine accompanied by the typical Ligurian focaccia.

Duration: 20 mins

2. Santuario di Nostra Signora di Reggio

From Vernazza we will walk the ancient mule track that in about an hour leads us to the Sanctuary of the Madonna of Reggio. Above every village of the Cinque Terre, a Marian Shrine watches. Each of them preserves the deep roots of the spirituality and culture of the Cinque Terre, to which the inhabitants are bound by a feeling of devotion. Just below the Sanctuary we will stop to visit a beautiful recently recovered olive grove belonging to our Azienda Agricola la Bottega, which gives us our Extra Virgin Olive Oil. We will also visit the home of two cute ponies that have become the mascots of our farm. Sitting under the shade of a pear tree you can rest for a moment enjoying a quick refreshment based on focaccia, tasting an extra virgin olive oil from Liguria and sipping a glass of wine from the Azienda Agricola la Bottega before embarking again on the descent towards the country.

Duration: 160 mins
