A coastal walk along a ridge of hills descending to the Cinque Terre.
Route: From beside the castle at Portovenere, a very steep set of steps and then a stony path to climb onto the ridge on route 1. Along this past Campiglia and eventually to Telegrafo. Then descending on route 3 to Riomaggiore and then a train back.
Conditions: Warm and sunny though some sea mist.
Pub: A glass of local Cinque Terre rosso at Bar Gastronomia I Quattro Venti, Campiglia.
