Some points of the walk are steep and the path narrows with not much between the path and the big drop to the beach.
The five towns are listed below from north to south:
· Monterosso al Mare
· Vernazza

· Manarola

Italy has many Religious Festivals and Carnevale (Shrove Tuesday) is one with celebrations.
There are many cultural events, concerts, and masked balls taking place.
Venice, Viareggio, and Cento hold the biggest and most elaborate of these celebrations.
Most tourists focus on Venice for this occasion but Viareggio, on the Tuscan coast, is known for its giant, allegorical paper maché floats.
These are paraded not only on Shrove Tuesday but also the three Sundays before and the Sunday following.
Easter throughout Italy is a big occasion but especially in Rome and the Vatican City.
