Cinque Terre
Cinque Terre is a chain of five small village/towns that run along the coast of Italy, on the Gulf of Genoa. To get from town to town you either take the train, or do what most people do: hike. The hike took us about 6 hours and at some points was pretty tiring but it was worth it. The view was spectacular and we had a great time (although we never did find the lemon-man who was handing out free lemons as refreshment, even though we saw millions of lemon peels along the way- how sad!).
Some of the stairs we had to walk up...later we realized this climb was EASY
