Il meglio di Corniglia

Corniglia's Essential Vistas and Charm

Corniglia, the only Cinque Terre village without direct sea access, sits atop a 100-meter rocky promontory. This selection features the 14th-century Ligurian Gothic Chiesa di San Pietro and the 18th-century Oratorio dei Disciplinati di Santa Caterina. It highlights elevated vantage points like the Santa Maria terrace, which overlooks the coastline toward Manarola, and the Sanctuary of San Bernardino, situated in the hills above the village. These sites showcase the area's religious heritage and its unique position surrounded by terraced vineyards.
