A path between olive trees and slate above Cavi di Lavagna

Un sentiero tra ulivi e ardesia

A path between olive trees and slate on the heights of Cavi di Lavagna.
Some time ago I walked for the first time the path that goes from Cavi di Lavagna to the church of Santa Giulia.
I must say that, apart from the fact that it is a continuous staircase, in the section closest to the church it is very beautiful.
You walk between olive trees and paths paved with slate.
Once you reach the church there are several options for continuing: you can go down to Lavagna (and this is a nice downhill stretch and very beautiful to end the walk) or go up again and there are at least two options.
You can go up taking the path towards Monte Capenardo or San Giacomo which is very tough or (passing after a short stretch of road suitable for vehicles) passing through Sorlana you can go up towards Selva.

I hope I've given you a couple of interesting ideas for your walks!

The splendid San Fruttuoso of Camogli

La splendida San Fruttuoso di Camogli

The splendid San Fruttuoso di Camogli.
I never stop rolling my eyes every time I find myself in front of one of the photos I took on one of my trips to San Fruttuoso.
At the moment I have already reached the splendid Abbey both from Camogli (path of the chains) and from Santa Margherita Ligure (from the Portofino mountain) and both paths were very challenging and long but, at the same time, they gave me dozens of shots in nature.

Do you know San Fruttuoso?

Here is where the Abbey is located:

The abbey is dedicated to Saint Fructuosus of Tarragona, a 3rd century Catalan bishop and saint, whose ashes are preserved in the abbey, where they were supposedly transferred following the Arab invasion of the Iberian Peninsula.
The abbey cannot be reached by any road, but can only be accessed by sea or by following two panoramic paths: one that descends from the Portofino mountain above and the other that runs along the coast starting from the Portofino bay. The abbey overlooks the bathing beach in front.

San Rocco di Camogli

San Rocco di Camogli

San Rocco di Camogli.
Una bella parrocchia che domina il Golfo Paradiso e da cui iniziano i sentieri per il Monte di Portofino e San Fruttuoso.
Io avevo fatto uno dei più spettacolari, il sentiero delle catene, che però era stato veramente (ma veramente) impegnativo.

San Rocco di Camogli

Storicamente seguì le sorti del comune capoluogo e dei centri vicini come Ruta di Camogli. Presumibilmente anche il primo nucleo di San Rocco si sviluppò in epoca antica lungo il crinale e il principale luogo di culto.

The village of Vernazza in Cinque Terre in June 2020

Vernazza il 6 giugno 2020

The village of Vernazza in the Cinque Terre in June 2020.
The Cinque Terre are certainly among the most famous Ligurian locations in the world.
This is Vernazza and I photographed it a few days ago during a walk along the paths that connect the five villages.
In my opinion Vernazza is probably the most beautiful of the five.
