A healthy clmb up from the port of Portofino, past an interesting church and unusual cemetary. It's historic and architectuarally interesting and currently features photos of famous folks visiting in the region sich asLaurel and Hardy, Satchmo, yound Marlon Brando, etc. and lovely old treasures and a lot of history

A nice walk up the pine hill, Castello Brown has terraces boasting the most gorgeous view of Portofino from top.
