Cinque Terre Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 1: Monterosso / the 5 Village Hike
We were greeted in Cinque Terre with gorgeous sunny weather, so the photographers and tourists headed out on our first morning on the 5 mile scenic hike high above, linking the five cities of the Cinque Terre, taking in breathtaking scenery along the way. With our paint gear, we opted to stay in Monterosso and capture this beautiful quiet courtyard, with its soft dappled light and lovely plantings.
That evening we connected with the hikers and enjoyed a delicious dinner of fresh caught seafood, local pesto and pasta, and tasty Italian wine. A great end to a perfect first day!

Good news – we’ll be returning to Cinque Terre next fall (2026) with an exciting new Art Trek! If you’re interested in joining us there or one one of our other workshops, please let us know. Spaces fill up quickly!
