Prepare for a difficult hike from Levanto to Monterosso al Mare, a route spanning 9.7 miles (15.6 km) with 2296 feet (700 metres) of elevation gain. This journey typically takes about 5 hours and 42 minutes. The Sentiero Verde Azzurro leads you through varied terrain, from forest paths to stepped sections, all set within the Mediterranean scrubland. You will find peaceful stretches and open views, particularly as you reach Cape Mesco, where the ruins of the 13th-century San Antonio Monastery stand. The trail offers glimpses of the sea through maritime pines, creating a distinct coastal atmosphere. This is a challenging but rewarding experience.
Starting your hike in Levanto is convenient, especially if you arrive by car, as parking is available. After completing the route in Monterosso al Mare, you can easily take the train back to Levanto. The train station in Fegina is right by the sea, making for a smooth return journey. Plan your start time to allow ample daylight for the full duration of the hike.
This trail connects two charming coastal towns within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Cinque Terre National Park. Beyond the main path, consider a detour to Punta Mesco for even wider views of the coastline. The route also passes the famous Il Gigante statue carved into the rocks near Monterosso's beaches, adding a unique cultural element to your outdoor adventure.
