The tour was very nice. The path itself was fantastic (beautifully overgrown, small scrambles) as was the view of the rocky bays and the sea. Our three-year-old daughter enthusiastically walked and climbed most of the way back on the north side of the headland. The path is very challenging for her age, but also very exciting and varied.

You can climb up the Genoese Tower and have a great all-round view

We take a small coastal hike on the Gulf of Chiuni to the Genoese tower of Omigna.
A pleasant route with beautiful views from the path.
Finally, along the cliff rocks to …
