"It is better to take many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward."

Spanish steps (Edited)
Its Italian name is “Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti” and composed of 12 ramps and 135 travertine steps, it is considered the widest and longest staircase of Europe, welcoming millions of tourists and Romans who visit at all times of the day.
The ‘Spanish steps’ in Rome, built in Rococo style between 1723 and 1726, are the steps that lead from the Piazza di Spagna square to the French monastery church Trinita dei Monti (built between 1502–1587). There are 135 steps and three different terraces, referring to the Holy Trinity (the Trinità). The top of the stairs near the Egyptian obelisk offers a beautiful view, albeit one shared with throngs of other tourists. The name can be a bit confusing, as the construction of the steps was actually commissioned by the French (Louis XII). In the 17th century, the Spanish embassy was located on the square – ‘Piazza di Spagna’ – at the base of the stairs, hence the name ‘Spanish Steps’. The official name is therefore not Spanish steps, but Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti.

At the bottom of the 70-metre high vertical cliffs are "Gog" and "Magog", the nicknames given to the giant limestone stacks rising up out of the sea. The 86 steps that go down the face of the cliffs were carved by a local settler Hugh Gibson, who worked on the route originally used by the Kirrae Whurrong people.

The track to Wineglass Bay in the Freycinet National Park on Tasmania's east coast, is one of the most popular in the island state. So much so that in many places steps like this have been made to assist walkers in the climb over The Hazards.
So let's commence a walk to the famous beach. Our first destination is the Wineglass Bay lookout. But there's plenty to see on the way up.
