Tourist Amenities & Activities

The medieval village of Tavernelle lies at the heart of the Taverone valley, an unspoilt paradise for trekking, painting and photography.

The cities of Pisa, Lucca, Florence and Siena with their famous museums, galleries and architecture are just a short drive away.

The coastal city of La Spezia is the gateway to the renowned Cinque Terre by rail and by romantic ‘traghetto’, offering the opportunity to visit each of these beautiful towns on one ferry ticket, stopping for lunch in one town, and for a refreshing swim in another. Sail back to La Spezia, or to Lerici as the sun slips into the sea behind Portovenere.

The Traghettos from Lerici and la Spezia also sail daily to the famous resort of Portofino.

Equi Terme, located in the high Apuan Alps offers thermal spas, caves, mountain walks and beauty treatments. The nearest Golf course is in Lerici.
