COASTAL TRAILS OF THE CINQUE TERRE - ITALY
Sat, Sep 12, 3:00 PM**Join Backabush for a 4 night stay hiking the ancient coastal paths of this UNESCO site and National Park on the Italian Riviera.** These are the picturesque villages of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore that make up the Cinque Terre National Park. The area could hardly be more visually striking, the trails are filled with amazing views across terraced vineyards and colourful coves. Group Size - 16. Nights - 4. Accommodation - Guest House, twin share rooms. Cost - £449 **DIFFICULTY:** This trip is suitable for everyone with reasonable fitness, the hikes are moderate in difficulty up to around 9 miles each day with a lunch stop at one of the famous villages for some focaccia before we continue along the coast to the next village to finish the hike with a limoncello spritz in the afternoon. Lovely! Trains link our accommodation in La Spezia to all of the villages in the National Park and it is by far the easy way to get around in Cinque Terre. As there is a train station in every village along the trail, our hikes can easily be joined or left in the middle of the day, so the itinerary is completely flexible for people to take a morning enjoying cafe culture or an afternoon wandering the narrow streets. **ACCOMMODATION:** We will be staying in a modern guest house, conveniently located in the neighbouring coastal town of La Spezia. It has all the expected facilities like en-suite bathrooms and air-conditioned rooms. La Spezia is larger than the villages of Cinque Terre but still easy going with a great choice of bars and restaurants for evenings of pesto and local seafood. Our guest house is near the railway station and we will ride between 7 and 25 minutes to and from our hikes each day. **WHAT IS INCLUDED:** *Guest house accommodation in twin share rooms - Full itinerary of guided hikes *Backabush trip leader (qualified Mountain Leader) - Financial protection in accordance with the Package Travel Law 2018 **WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED:** *Flights (see below) - Airport transfers (we will take the local train) *Trains in Cinque Terre - Blue trail entrance fee *Meals - Travel insurance **RECOMMENDED FLIGHTS:** There are daily flights to Pisa from London, Bristol, Birmingham and Manchester. Trains run from Pisa to La Spezia every 30 mins and can be booking online with Trainline, Omio or Trenitalia. It will be easy to meet us at the accommodation anytime on Saturday 12th September, check in is from 4pm. You can walk from the station to the hotel in just a few minutes. On the 16th of September we will need to check out of our hotel at 11am before we head home. Please feel free to book your return flight for any time on the 16th September. **TRANSFERS:** The train journey between Pisa Airport and La Spezia is roughly 1hr 30 and approx £25 return. Service specific tickets can be purchased online but the regional trains do not sell out and offer no advanced discount so we recommend purchasing your ticket on arrival from the ticket desk at Pisa Airport, this allows for any flight delays. **HOW TO BOOK:** To confirm your place on this trip please send payment with online banking, using **CINQUETERRE** as the payment reference. **Your RSVP is not enough to reserve a space.** The account details are: Account Name: BACKABUSH XPLORERS Sort Code: 090127 Account Number: 22440622 The following "terms and conditions" apply to all trip reservations: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ngc5A61k76qb6HGMeTK96AVaXn0565yPS9p42IPzIy8/](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ngc5A61k76qb6HGMeTK96AVaXn0565yPS9p42IPzIy8/edit?usp=sharing) Please email [nathancapay@googlemail.com](http://nathancapay@googlemail.com/) when you send payment so that we can confirm everything with you.
