Suddenly we emerged from a wooded section of the High Trail and began capturing vistas of Corniglia perched on an outcropping of rock below.
The closer we got, the more beautiful the surrounding flora became with bright bougainvillea,
field poppies,
and flowering oleander.
Yellow wildflowers and
cultivated Passion flowers

We then came to a long, picturesque staircase down to sea level.
