Lo scorso Martedì e oggi ho accompagnato lungo il Percorso Botanico di Torre 
Guardiola, nel Parco Nazionale delle Cinque Terre quattro classi dell’ Istituto Comprensivo di Lerici . Si trattava di un programma organizzato dall’ Agenzia Viaggi del Parco che coinvolgeva anche Sabrina, una collega Guida Turistica. Ci siamo divisi le classi e mentre un gruppo faceva con me il percorso botanico, l’altro seguiva sabrina lungo la Via dell’Amore to Manarola and vineyards. In the afternoon, then the groups were reversed. The program lasts two days and tomorrow, after spending the night at the hostel Ospitalia Seas Levanto is scheduled to visit the lemon groves of Monterosso. The botanical trail of Torre Guardiola
The course is housed in an old abandoned military area of \u200b\u200bthe Second War 
(see details below). It can be accessed from the town of Riomaggiore taking the path that starts from the sea, or from along the road from Riomaggiore up to the Resort. Along the way you will find effective information panels that explain in simple terms the various species of flora, vegetation types (the Mediterranean maquis, the garrigue , the halophytes, etc..) Ecology of these environments. E 'can also enjoy birdwatching , and observe the many birds in the bush ( Warbler, Whitethroat 
, etc.), the gulls and falcons that nest on the coast, without counting the occurrences during the period of seasonal migration, a paradise for bird lovers. 
Accessibility: The path from the marina up to the "Battery" in about 20 minutes but is well protected in some places quite steep, so be recommended only to those who have particular difficulty walking or dizziness. As mentioned though, the path that starts coming down the main access to the "Battery" is available to all and very scenic.
To access must pay a ticket: € 1.5 each, 2.5 grp family ingreso free for holders of 5Terre Card (more info centers in the park reception)
The environmental education center : it is served by a modern classroom with two computer e diversi microscopi binoculari, sale studio, centro congressi, archivi multimediali. In questa ed in altre strutture ricavate dal recupero delle vecchie batterie si svolgono durante l’anno corsi e congressi promossi dal Parco e dal Centro di EA . Fino allo scorso anno si occupavano della gestione della struttura: Fulvio Dente, Maria Berettieri , Cristina Berettieri , Daniele Tringali , competenti biologi e naturalisti Note storiche su Torre Guardiola-o “Batteria Racchia”
Quest’area occupava una posizione strategica per il controllo e la difesa della costa, godendo di un vasta visuale che Today, fortunately, we appreciate the reasons for more peaceful. It was part of a comprehensive system, set up by the Navy in defense of the Military of La Spezia and then transformed by the Germans after the armistice in an antiaircraft battery. The Germans abandoned the April 24, 1945. Later the area was reclaimed by our Navy and sold to the City of Riomaggiore. Throughout the area there are bunkers and pillboxes partly recovered and used in study rooms and reception center will remain visible while the bases with concrete anchors of the anti-aircraft guns.

the day with the boys' Ist . Comp. of Lerici
We met the children and teachers at the train station of La Spezia to catch the train of 10 to get in a few minutes Riomaggiore. Here we expect an environmentally friendly natural gas buses that brought us the Park at the main entrance of the botanical trail, along the road from the village up to the Resort. Hence our visit goes downhill along a narrow road, also accessible to disabled people, across the Mediterranean among beautiful views. W extends to the coast and the Cinque Terre with Promontory
Mesco situated on the border of this small world after which the weather is nice you 
sees learning Liguria, the promontory of Portofino and the Maritime Alps, while to the east coast of the islands Sunsets Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto . Towards the south the "vast sea" to the horizon you can see the islands of the Tuscan and Corsica.! With the guys we talked about the essences of course, the difference between flora and vegetation and the adaptations of plants in the Mediterranean climate. As always, I enjoyed a little scared 'with the poisonous latex of' Euphorbia tree but this time nobody died ;-)
About halfway through the building that meet
houses the center of EA that has been made available if there had surprised a bit by the storm that raged for days. A bit 'below the entrance of the underground tunnels dug by the military during the war. You can cross them coming out near a bunker (you can imagine the fun of the boys!) mentre poco più sotto si trova il centro accoglienza-bar davanti al quale si trova una terrazza panoramica con tavoli e sedie. 
Il percorso
potrebbe proseguire continuando a scendere fino alla spiaggia di Riomaggiore ma oggi è chiuso per motivi di sicurezza a causa delle piogge di questi giorni. Eh si, purtroppo questi ragazzi sono stati un po' sfortunati con la pioggia ma forse eravamo più noi a lamentarci che loro! La cosa incredibile è constatare che per molti di questi ragazzi, quindicenni, era la prima volta che venivano nelle Cinque Terre! Possiamo perdonare allora un po tutta 
l’allegra confusione che hanno fatto, perché in fondo sono stati simpatici e insieme ci siamo divertiti. In particolare devo ringraziare la 3° A che oggi pomeriggio è stata infettata dal morbo della “ belinite ” acuta e non la smettevano più di ridere. Sarà per la vergogna quindi che nella foto si coprono il viso? Ciao a tutti ragazzi e auguri per la promozione visto che siete in terza!
Carrambata : small personal note, a true " Carràmba " one of the teachers accompanying the children was also my professors . Art of the SM Poggi of Lerici ! Help! It's been 24 years! Prof. A big kiss!
