Tips

It is located on a small sunny plateau at about 550m near the Lago and Alpesisa mountains (989m), along the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri and in its vicinity flows the Rio Canate which feeds the waters once channeled into the aqueduct. historian of Genoa and today used by the Genoa water distribution body.

Many inhabitants worked in the port of Genoa and every day they were forced to walk four hours to go and return. Many could count on an income and therefore afford some small comforts by tackling the journey on the back of mules. The land exposed to the sun allowed the development of the vines that the inhabitants cultivated on different bands. Even today along the route you can find demijohns, wooden barrels and tools for the production of wine. The village also had an oven, an elementary class and each family had two or more cows.
