Ticket for the coastal paths

The Cinque Terre is a national park and listed on the UNESCO's World Heritage List. If you want to walk the Cinque Terre Path, you have to buy a ticket either in one of the Tourist Information Offices or just at the beginning of the paths.

In 2004 a day ticket for the paths cost 3 Euro. The money is said to be used to save the Cinque Terre from decline.

Cinque Terre wine - Sciacchetra

Many of the steep slopes of the Cinque Terre are used to cultivate wine.

The most famous wine of this region is the Sciacchetra which is a sort of white and sweet dessert wine with a higher alcoholic content. It has to be served well chilled.
