Corniglia

Why go

The raised position changes the Cinque Terre view: terraces surround the village while the other settlements lie along the coast below. Walk the narrow streets to the Santa Maria panorama, then seek out St Peter's church and its Carrara marble rose window. Corniglia rewards visitors who want the landscape seen from above rather than a waterfront stop.

What to look for

• The Santa Maria terrace opens a wide view along the Cinque Terre coast.
• St Peter's church has a rose window carved from Carrara marble.
• Narrow lanes cross the promontory above the sea.

Useful to know

• Allow for the long staircase between the station and village centre before planning your time here.
• Leave room to walk beyond the first street to the Santa Maria viewpoint.
• If stairs are a concern, check current local transport and access options before arriving.
