Views of the Italian Riviera Above Rapallo

Rapallo is one of my favorite places on the Italian Riviera because of the funicular that carries you high above the coast. After a walk around the pedestrian area and along the coast, where you'll see Rapallo's tiny but picturesque castle in the sea, take the tram up the hill to Monteallegra, where there are spectacular views. Visit the pilgrimage church, Santuario Basilica Nostra Signora di Montallegro, then enjoy a lunch on the terrace of the Casa del Pellegrino Restaurant while gazing at the sea far below. If you feel like walking, there's a hiking trail at the top or you can walk back down to Rapallo. You can also have a swim in the sea when you return.


For a look at one of our rides up the tram, see Above Rapallo Video and take a look at the town itself with our Rapallo Pictures.
