The mountain bike guide will welcome you at La Spezia train station. You will be given the mountain bikes and during a short briefing some instructions about the tour. After about 30 min cycling on the car road leading to Porto Venere which offers you great views of the gulf you will start a climb on an abandoned military road that takes you to the little village of Campiglia from where you can enjoy breath-taking views over the Gulf of Poets on one side and the sea of the Cinque Terre on the other side. Alessandra, a young lady owning a little bar will offer you here a tasty light lunch made of typical Ligurian snacks: focaccia, vegetable cakes, cheese… After this break the tour continues still for about one hour and then you reach Volastra in the middle of the Cinque Terre. You can rest a while, take pictures of the wonderful vineyards and the great views before you will drive on the car road down to Manarola where the tour ends and you can catch the train in all directions.
