Apartments Monterosso Italy Apartments monterosso cinque terre Rent rooms Monterosso Italy

Since a long time accessible from Levanto through the carriage road, it is undoubtedly the most visited tourist resort among the Cinque Terre. From the Capuchin Monastery and, further above, from the ancient Fieschi's Castle - today a cemetery - the glance

can reach a large portion of coast, enjoying a marvellous panoramic view: on one side the steep Punta Masco, featuring the S. Antonio abbey's ruins, on the other the steep coast covered with vines where you can see Vernazza, Corniglia and Manarola up to Monte Nero cape.

With a nice walk, from Monterosso you can get to Madonna di Soviore, the most ancient sanctuary in Liguria. It is traced back to the 11th century when, according to the tradition, the people survived to the Rotari Longobard invasions found shelter in this place and subsequently founded Monterosso: natural origin (ask about the Maddalena Hill and the Lapau Flank). The rich underwood of Mediterranean type is mixed with elements of centre Europe and Atlantic origin.
