Via dell'Amore is a scenic pedestrian path carved into the cliffs between Riomaggiore and Manarola, part of the Cinque Terre trail network. Built in the early 20th century, it offers stunning views of the Ligurian coast and is adorned with love locks and graffiti from visitors. The easy, flat walk takes about 20–30 minutes, making it accessible to most. It's especially popular at sunset and is a symbol of romance in the region.
