400 m
Levanto-Monterosso
The views on this trail are incredible (jaw-dropping!), but make sure you are prepared for a longer hike. The perk is that even in the summer, this trail probably won’t be very busy.
Suggestions:
– It will be an uphill start, but the trail is easier starting from Levanto.
– It is a longer hike, so don’t forget extra water and some snacks.
– Wear good shoes (cannot stress this enough).
