It's worth getting there by bike and finding yourself immersed in nature and peace. It is easy to encounter some deer on the road, especially in the morning

The Convento del Deserto di Varazze (SV) is located in the Ligurian hinterland a few kilometers from the sea, surrounded by green woods. It is a destination for many hikers, cyclists and walkers, but above all for pilgrims seeking the presence of God.
The community of Discalced Carmelite friars carries out hospitality activities for spiritual retreats and days of prayer, as well as for scouts and parish groups.
For 40 years the Hermitage has been a house of formation as well as the seat of the Novitiate.
Excellent products such as jams, liqueurs, honey and balsamic syrups are available in the shop.
