To be honest, the hike from Porto Venere to Cinque Terre can be exausting. Depending how far you want to go, and on the amount of time you got, you could start in Porto Venere and end up 12 hours later in Levanto, just north of the 5 towns. In between you will most likely curse the person who wrote this. And then, when you have done it and you look at the photos you shot all the way, you will proudly raise your chest and say "I´ve done it!"
Hiking from sea level up to almost 516 meters and stop at the "Colle de Telegrafo" you will come along vineyards, rocky paths, and a most beautiful scenery before dropping down to the first town of Cinque Terre, Riomaggiorre. Then you follow the "Lover´s Lane" and hike through Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and the last of the 5, Monterosso.
If you got the time, or if you don´t want to do the whole hike in one day, there are plenty of B&B, hotels and else to rest and lay your head overnight in one of the mentioned towns.
Enjoy the hike, take enough water with you and be careful when the paths are wet! And please don´t curse the author too many times ;-)
