What you'll see
The quiet one: the only village up on a headland rather than at the water. Climb the long brick staircase from the station and you're rewarded with a lookout over the sea.
A brief history
Corniglia sits on a promontory about 100 metres above the sea, surrounded by terraced vineyards. The Lardarina has around 380 steps.
