Take a walk on one of the lesser-known but most fascinating trails of the Cinque Terre. After a quick but engaging visit to the town of Vernazza, we will start climbing along the fascinating mule track towards the Sanctuary of the Madonna di Reggio (about 1 hour) at an altitude of 330 meters. During the climb, we will admire beautiful views of the Cinque Terre coast with its characteristic terraces supported by kilometers of dry-stone walls, where olives and grapes are cultivated to produce prestigious wines. In front of the shaded Sanctuary Square stands a monumental cypress (the oldest in Liguria!) and a majestic leccio. Before going down, we will visit the fascinating olive grove of Azienda Agricola la Bottega, where Ligure DOP extra virgin olive oil is produced. It will also be an opportunity to visit two cute ponies, which are the mascots of the farm. During the tour you can enjoy a glass of DOC 5 Terre wine accompanied by the typical Ligurian focaccia.

Santuario di Nostra Signora di Reggio
From Vernazza we will walk the ancient mule track that in about an hour leads us to the Sanctuary of the Madonna of Reggio. Above every village of the Cinque Terre, a Marian Shrine watches. Each of them preserves the deep roots of the spirituality and culture of the Cinque Terre, to which the inhabitants are bound by a feeling of devotion. Just below the Sanctuary we will stop to visit a beautiful recently recovered olive grove belonging to our Azienda Agricola la Bottega, which gives us our Extra Virgin Olive Oil. We will also visit the home of two cute ponies that have become the mascots of our farm. Sitting under the shade of a pear tree you can rest for a moment enjoying a quick refreshment based on focaccia, tasting an extra virgin olive oil from Liguria and sipping a glass of wine from the Azienda Agricola la Bottega before embarking again on the descent towards the country.

Gentle nature hike
A stunning and peaceful walk up behind Vernazza with epic views. The pace is quite gentle with a lot of stops and easy conversation. It’s a lovely tour with a friend or like me solo. The host is incredibly knowledgeable and it is also his families stunning generational farm with delicious olives, lemons and wine

Wonderful experience
This was an absolutely awesome experience! Alessandro did a wonderful job as a guide. He explained everything so thoroughly and with such kindness. It was a great experience to interact with a local who is so passionate about local farming.The hike was absolutely beautiful up into the mountains. It was so peaceful and we were the only ones on the trail. The samples of wine, olive oil and bread were a nice treat after the climb up to the top to the sanctuary. It was an added bonus to visit with the two little ponies. I would highly recommend this if you are interested in getting off the beaten path and want to do some relaxing and peaceful hiking. It is uphill, but it’s gradual and the guide took his time and allowed for plenty of rust breaks.

Very beautiful, scenic...
Very beautiful, scenic hike with a very engaged, knowledgeable guide. Alessandro shared a lot of information about both the natural vegetation and the produce grown on the terraces. The luncheon and wine tasting were done in an spectacular location in a shaded area outside the old church.

+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cinque Terre, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

+

How far in advance should I book Olive grove tour with wine and oil tasting of the Cinque Terre?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cinque Terre can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cinque Terre and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

How many days do you need in Cinque Terre?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

+
