Highways:

• From the A12, between Genova-La Spezia, you can take the exit at the toll booth in Carrodano and then go ahead to Levanto-Monterosso. In the opposite direction, taking the exit at the toll booth in Brugnato, you can reach Monterosso. If you come from La Spezia you can take the Litoranea road, and reach Riomaggiore and Manarola. A narrow and winding street, called "dei Santuari", links the five villages one to the other.
