From Genova through Cinque Terre, wonderful stretch of coast protected by Unesco, up to Portovenere, charming village standing on a rocky promontory in front of the island of Palmaria, plunged in the smells and intense colours of Ligurian East coast. After the visit to  Genova, the most important Italian harbour and also the city where Cristoforo Colombo was born,   the picturesque rack train to Casella will take you 300 m uphills with beautiful sight over the gulf and over the fortresses at the back of Genova. The first part of the tour involves some drops, but the effort will be repayed by the landscape characterized by  small and ancient stone villages surrounded by olive groves. In Cicagna there is an "ecomuseo" that lets you know the typical local stone, the slate; by slate was builted in the XII century the Basilica dei Fieschi  in Cogorno. In the green Val Graveglia you can visit the interesting manganese mine of Gambatesa, still operative. At least you cycle downhills to the sea reaching the beautiful  Portovenere. If you have time, you can take the boat and make an excursion to  the island of Palmaria.
