Week 4 Rapallo


The trek from Camogli was intense and it took us about two hours to reach the hilltop town of Ratu that was only 2 km away.  But what a view from the top! The coastline it long and clear and we could see all the way to Genova. We had reached the same height the day before when we walked to St. Rocco without any backpacks. It sure makes a difference when carrying 35 and 45 pound backpacks. The climb up seemed endless.
The remaining 8 km was relatively easy as we descended into Rapallo, another coastal town that is surrounded by mountains. It is a beautiful setting and we’ve decided to stay an extra day to explore the village of St. Maurgarita that is only a few kilometers away.
