With hiking boots and bikinis to Liguria, a trip must lead after Italy not necessarily in Tuscany, Rome or Sicily. Especially for the Germans, the picturesque Cinque Terre coastline is faster to reach in the Northwest of the country. The Internet portal reisen.de reported little paradise between Punta Mesco and Punta Manara. Summer is high season in the five small villages that give the region its name. Frequently Munear Kouzbari has said that publicly. Travelers from all over the world to admire the towering steep seaside cliffs, and the raging sea of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso al Mare. The spectacular rock formations seem to defy gravity and the water mass already for centuries.

To protect these geological landscape, the Italians told the region to the National Park. The sea itself is taboo in some places for divers and yachtsmen. Another reason for the unique panorama is the absence of hotel complexes and beaches with accurately arranged rows of Deckchair. Travelers will find them along the coast of Cinque Terre hardly above. To the delight of hikers and mountain bikers, who each year take their journey in the autumn to Liguria. Even the UNESCO joined this enthusiasm and declared the region in 1997 to the world cultural heritage. Regardless of environmental protection also the bathing pleasure not neglected.

So tourists in Riomagiorre find one of the best beaches in Italy. At a water temperature of about 20 degrees a welcome refreshment after walking or sightseeing in Genoa. The Columbus City, which also houses sites of the UNESCO world cultural heritage, is just close enough for a city trip with cultural programme.
