The five villages are tiny and car-free, so there is no vet inside them; the nearest clinics are in the gateway towns of Levanto to the north and the La Spezia area to the south, both a short train ride away. For anything serious, head to the 24-hour clinic near La Spezia. Save these numbers before you set off on a trail, as mobile signal can drop on the higher paths.
