Cinque Terre, Liguria
Not impressed....
Honestly, I was expecting more from Cinque Terre. The weather was gorgeous….but it was SUPER crowded (we were there in September), and the towns were kind of dirty. Lots of graffiti everywhere. In addition, we saw a man pass away on the hike—which I’m sure tainted my view of Cinque Terre as well. After attempting CPR on him (I was assisting), the paramedics finally showed up 45 minutes later. I would not attempt the hikes unless you are in semi-decent physical shape and be warned that there will be minimal medical attention if anything should go wrong….it is not a casual hike that some believe it to be.
