Italy
Colourful villages perched on rocks but easy to travel between by train or on foot.
But beware: parking will cost nearly €3 per hour and the path between the villages may be reduced to a 20-minute stroll for which you will be charged the same as for walking the whole 12km path.
Train from La Spezia or park at entrance to villages.
Cinque terre is strip of coast that links six cliff hugging villages. They are joined together by a railway so you can village hop easily. Very charming and very scenic.
