Take the path that starts behind the Abbey, which, with a steep but short staircase, leads you to Torre Andrea Doria.

Beyond the location Casella, where there's a tap for drinking water, the trail enters the woods again and in about 20 minutes, it reaches the impressive rocky boulders that characterize the location of Pietre Strette (465 meters above sea level), the heart of Monte di Portofino as well as a resting point equipped with tables, benches, and drinking water.
