Olivlundstur med vin- och olivoljeprovning i Cinque Terre
Beskrivning
Vandra på en av de mindre kända men mest fascinerande lederna i Cinque Terre. Efter ett snabbt men engagerande besök i byn Vernazza börjar vi klättringen längs den fascinerande mulstigen mot helgedomen Madonna di Reggio (cirka 1 timme) på 330 meters höjd. Under klättringen beundrar vi den vackra utsikten över Cinque Terre-kusten med dess karakteristiska terrasser som stöds av kilometerlånga torra stenmurar, där olivträd och vinrankor odlas för att producera prestigefyllda viner. Framför den skuggiga Piazzale del Santuario står en monumental cypress (den äldsta i Ligurien!) och en majestätisk stenek. Innan vi går ner besöker vi den fascinerande olivlunden Azienda Agricola la Bottega, där ligurisk DOP extra jungfruolivolja produceras. Det blir också ett tillfälle att besöka två vänliga ponnyer, gårdens maskotar. I skuggan av ett päronträd kan du njuta av ett glas 5 Terre DOC-vin tillsammans med typisk ligurisk focaccia.

Resplan
Vid den överenskomna mötesplatsen hittar du Alessandro, en lokal kvalificerad vandringsguide som hjälper dig att upptäcka Vernazzas hemligheter.
Från Vernazza reser vi längs den gamla mulstigen som tar oss till Madonna di Reggios helgedom på ungefär en timme. En mariansk helgedom vakar över varje by i Cinque Terre. Var och en av dem bevarar faktiskt de djupa rötterna till Cinque Terres andlighet och kultur, till vilka invånarna är knutna av en känsla av hängivenhet. Strax nedanför helgedomen stannar vi till för att besöka en vacker, nyligen restaurerad olivlund som tillhör vår gård, La Bottega, som förser oss med vår extra jungfruolja. Vi kommer också att besöka hemmet för två vänliga ponnyer som har blivit maskotar på vår gård. Sittande i skuggan av ett päronträd kan du vila en stund och njuta av en snabb förfriskning av focaccia, smaka på ligurisk extra jungfruolja och smutta på ett glas vin från Azienda Agricola la Bottega innan du påbörjar nedstigningen tillbaka till byn.

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
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 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.
Easy paced, not rushed. Beautiful area. Our guide, Allesandro was very knowledgeable about area, wines and olive groves
This was my first time in Italy, as well as my first time solo travelling, and I'm so glad that I booked this experience! Alessandro guided me on the tour from Vernazza station up to the Sanctuary and it was a great way to see and learn about Cinque Terre. Alessandro was very communicative ahead of the booking, and was very knowledgeable and friendly. We had the perfect weather conditions for hiking, and the views were breathtaking. Once we got to the top, we had some focaccia, wine and locally made liqueur which was divine! Alessandro regularly checked that I was hydrated and was happy to take as many breaks as I needed in-between. I can't fault the experience and would 100% recommend to anyone going to Cinque Terre!
A truly wonderful tour, with views of the rolling hills of Vernazza, with its terraced vines. The Alessandro guide is always professional and manages to introduce us to the most characteristic aspects of the Cinque Terre. The sanctuary is beautiful and the ancient trees that surround it are truly admirable. The visit and the story of the two ponies enrich the experience and very very good and welcome tastings of limoncello and wine. A beautiful trip, simple and very very interesting, with an experienced and helpful guide.
This was an amazing tour. First we were lucky to be the inly ones. Our Tour Guide Alessandro was absolutely a joy to walk with. He is a local that works in the Bottegga Farms as well. He has the actual inside information of daily life in Vernazza for the locals. What we learned about the life in the farm was priceless. The hike was amazing with spectacular views of the farm and of Vernazza. Alessandro brought treats and wine to try while we sat enjoying the area and the Ponies!! Ponies were great. This is a true working farm so you get the perspective better. The wine was delicious, and the Limoncello…OMG. The Santuary is 800 years old, quiet, and peaceful. We recommend Alessandro and the tour highly. An amazing historical as well as culinary experience.
Nothing at top of mountain and church may not be open. Views of terrace hillside, ocean and town beneath very picturesque.
We had an unforgettable afternoon with Alessandro! The hike to the Bottega olive grove was beautiful, and learning about Vernazza’s history, wine traditions, and the rescue of the sweet ponies M&M made it even more special. The wine tasting among the olive trees was a highlight, and the walk to the sanctuary rewarded us with breathtaking sunset views over the whole town. Coming down at dusk and seeing Vernazza lit up was magical. Alessandro is so kind, knowledgeable, and passionate…highly recommend this tour!
It was a beautiful, interesting day with the discovery of new paths and corners that we did not think there were in the 5 lands. We must thank our guide Alessandro who made us appreciate everything with the kindness and professionalism that are his. Then the limoncino and the wine they offered us were delicious.
