If you are looking for trails with spectacular views of the Ligurian Sea, you must go to Framura, Bonassola and Levanto. Really.
The hiking route that connects these three beautiful villages is surrounded by nature, it is easy and uncrowded and it
has nothing to envy to the trekking routes in the nearby and well-known Cinque Terre. The other beautiful thing is
that Framura, Bonassola and Levanto are also connected by the
cycle path in the old train tunnels.
So you can take a route one way and the other on the way back, or a mix of the two, or even spend two days exploring these areas. They deserve them!
To reach the path to Bonassola from the Framura station,
you have to walk in the road tunnel until you come out onto the little port: from here, you hike up
using the staircase that cuts the road to the hamlet of Vandarecca. If you arrive by car, park in Anzo
and take the opportunity to admire the old houses of this picturesque hamlet.
After the Salto della Lepre you can take the path to Bonassola, where you will soon have a panoramic view.
Bonassola is a characteristic seaside village with a long beach, perhaps one of the most beautiful in Liguria. In summer it is crowded,
as well as covered with beach-umbrellas, while out of season you can admire it in all its splendor.
Along this itinerary there are a few villas and you have to cross the street in a couple of points, but not for the rest is
another beautiful walke in the nature with amazing views.
To return to the starting point, you can walk along the galleries from Levanto to Framura as described here
(the water that laps the rocks along the cycle path is fantastic), or you can take the train.
Alternatively, you can continue to Monterosso along the magnificent trail via Punta Mesco.
