Green Blue Path (Sentiero Verde Azzurro): one-way on the Monterosso-Vernazza stretch from 29 April to 1st May
In view of the high number of visitors expected at the weekend, the Park sets up a one-way system on the Green Blue path from 29 April to 1st May, in the stretch from Monterosso to Vernazza, and only from 10.00 a.m. to 2.00 p.m.
(sede del Parco Nazionale delle Cinque Terre, 26 Apr 23) From 29 April to 1st May, from 10.00 a.m. to 2.00 p.m., the entrance to the Monterosso-Vernazza stretch of the Green Blue path (SVA) will be allowed only with departure from Monterosso and exit at Vernazza. In this stretch, steepness and narrow passages can represent a risk for walkers and cause traffic jams at high flows

On the Vernazza side, the garrisons will be installed along the three access points to the path in the main street of the village (Via Roma) and at the Park's information point in Lama.
At the access points, Carabinieri forestali, CAI volunteers, Carabinieri Association, Voluntary Ecological Guards and Operators of the ATI 5 Terre will be present to provide information and check suitable clothing and footwear for the 4 km long stretch, with a difficulty: EE - for expert hikers and a positive difference in height of 217 m.
