Riomaggiore

Riomaggiore is an ancient village on the Eastern Riviera, it is the easternmost and southernmost of the Cinque Terre.

The first seaside village coming from La Spezia and the southernmost village of the five, Riomaggiore extends from the coasts of the Ligurian Sea to the Apennine mountains along two valleys, crossed by the Rio Maggiore and Rio Finale streams and separated by the Campione coast.

The first is dominated by Mount Verugola, whose three peaks also represent the town in the municipal coat of arms, the second developed after the arrival of the railway, starting from the second half of the 19th century.
