Today we walked for about 4.5 hours. We started at Monterosso and climbed steps and walked along narrow paths that followed the coastline to Vernazza. The walk was never flat and required lots of rests along the way. It is a lovely little town squashed into a narrow valley with a quaint little harbour. Lunch and drink and headed off to Corniglia about another 2 hours walk. This time not so many stairs but more sun. Corniglia is set on top of a rock jutting out into the sea. At this point we decided to continue our trip by train. The station is 377 steps down from the town so we were glad we had not arrived by train. The train took us to Riomaggiore which is another town set into the steep hills. Ferry back to Monterosso and a swim.
