- Arrival in Corniglia
By Train.
The most comfortable and recommended way to reach Corniglia is by train, the train station is located at sea level and to reach the town you can use the 5 Terre National Park minibuses which run the service throughout the day until 20.00.
The railway line that serves Corniglia is one of the main ones in Italy, the GENOA-ROME and the long-distance trains find the ideal stop in the La Spezia station where you can take the LOCAL trains that serve the Cinqueterre every 45 minutes.
The train is also the ideal way to visit the 5 TERRE considering that the average duration of the journey from one village to another is about 5 minutes.
We also recommend refuel , as there are no petrol stations in the Cinqueterre.
