- - Take a drive to National Park of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines and venture in the nature.
- - Stare in amazement at the Cinque Terre villages that are on the cusp of the cliffs.
- - Refresh yourself with a nice relaxing time in the natural hot springs.
- - Hike in another breathtaking wilderness area, Monti Sibillini National Park.
- - Wind down surrounded by vibrant colors in Castelluccio.
The first day is packed full with nature and adventures within Tuscan-Emilian Apennines National Park. The Apennines mountains will hover above you when you venture there. After a much needed day in nature, it's time to start heading to Vernazza in Cinque Terre. The sound of the water hitting the shoreline is a great way to start the day. While driving to most of the small villages, you'll notice that this area is mostly for pedestrians. Medieval buildings are spread out in the villages and each one has its own atmosphere, which you can see with the different kind of structures in them. Finally, there's the best for last. Begin the day early and start driving so you can take a soak to help ease any aches from all the walking in the hot springs at the Waterfalls of the Mill (Cascate del Mulino). Enjoy yet another wonderful National Park, Mounti Sibillini. Then it's time to gaze at the fields and the array of colors in Castelluccio. What is left is just to drive back to Bologna.
