Corniglia is a frazione ("hamlet") within the comune of Vernazza in the province of La Spezia, Liguria, northern Italy, with a population of about 150. Unlike the other localities of the Cinque Terre, Corniglia is not directly adjacent to the sea. Instead, it is on the top of a promontory about 100 metres high, surrounded on three sides by vineyards and terraces, the fourth side descends steeply to the sea. To reach Corniglia, it is necessary to climb the Lardarina, a long brick flight of steps composed of 33 flights with 383 steps or, otherwise follow a vehicular road that, from the station, leads to the village. Sometimes a small bus runs.

As the smallest of the five villages, Corniglia boasts a unique character and a peaceful atmosphere that sets it apart from its busier neighbors. The town is perched on a hilltop, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves that produce some of the region's finest wines and olive oils. To reach Corniglia, you can take a scenic train ride from La Spezia or hike along the famous coastal trail that connects all five villages.

Once you arrive in Corniglia, you'll be greeted by a maze of narrow alleys, steep stairs, and colorful houses that seem to defy gravity. The town's main square, Piazza Largo Taragio, is a charming spot to relax and admire the view over the sea. You can also visit the Church of San Pietro, a beautiful 14th-century church that dominates the town's skyline.
