Some travellers
And another group
Some magic moments
THE VEGETATIONFlowers, trees, mushrooms, fungus and lichens.
An incredible journey to immerse in a pristine landscape and in a culture that encompasses two millennia of history and tradition.
Liguria’s architecture and typical décor.
Traditional mountain accommodation.
Paths built centuries ago are still in use, meandering through beech and chestnut forests
The traditional food and other local delicacies
We cover a great variety of terrains in our 3 to 6 hours daily walks: from rolling rocky paths, uneven, and exposed-above the tree line- to pine-needle covered paths in wooded areas.

Convents, stone buildings, a roman bridge, gourmet shopping. A day in the valley
“Il Ponte del Diavolo” a Roman bridge built overnight – according to a legend – by the Devil himself!
Churches as centers of faith and knowledge
The magic interior of a thousand years old church
An ancient tower watch, in the museum collection. Unique!
The unpredictable weather…
…it can be extremely fluctuating: from a beautiful sunny day in a few hours it can become a windy, cold and ominous day.
Typical accommodation
