Sentiero del Pellegrino, Gulf of Poets
Liguria
One of the most beautiful short walks on the Ligurian coast, the Sentiero del Pellegrino leaves Lerici castle and weaves through rosemary, cistus and maritime pine to the tiny harbour of Tellaro. The path reveals hidden coves and rock-stack views across to Portovenere with very little elevation change.
