ジェノヴァの滝・トップ10

Small but beautiful...to be seen again in the summer

About 750 meters from La Villa, heading towards Gramizza, there's an information panel along the SS654 (small parking lot along the road). Take the dirt road closed to traffic, pass the chain, and continue downhill for a while, following the signs for "Cascata del Cucù" and "Passerella dei Roncazzi." After a few meters, near a handrail, the turnoff for the waterfall branches off to the left. Follow a well-marked path that descends steeply to a grassy trail. Cross the trail and enter the meadow in front (note: the sign is not located along the grassy trail, but a little further ahead, already inside the meadow). Continue downhill until you reach a section with a handrail. A final set of steps leads to the waterfall, with the unique feature of passing right behind the waterfall (be careful, as the wooden sections may be a bit slippery). A small conduit channels sulfurous spring water, another distinctive feature of this walk. Don't miss sampling it: the unique flavor will amaze the children. The return journey follows the same route (uphill). https://www.comune.santostefanodaveto.ge.it

The trail is fairly easy to follow, a bit confusing at the beginning where you have to cross the stream (without taking off your shoes, just find the right spot... and then you have to follow the chain-link fence on the right, to simplify things).

The Cascata del Serpente is an enchanting natural spectacle immersed in the lush vegetation of the Ligurian Apennines. This waterfall, which takes its name from its sinuous shape, plunges with a suggestive leap into a pool of crystalline water. Easily accessible via a short hiking trail, the Cascata del Serpente is an ideal destination for nature lovers, offering a cool refuge on hot summer days and a perfect place for a regenerating break during walks.

Villetta Di Negro, for many Genoese “Dinegro” just to save space, is a municipal park in the center of the city of Genoa, on a small hill overlooking Piazza Corvetto and Piazzale Mazzini, partially covered with the bastions, called “Luccoli”, the walls dating back to the 17th century. The villa was built at the beginning of the 19th century by the Marquis Gian Carlo Di Negro and the park was decorated both with tall trees and paths with flowerbeds leading to the main villa, from which the view extended to the sea, with the presence of numerous statues, in keeping with the classical style of the period. In the second half of the 19th century, after the death of the Marquis Di Negro, the complex was bought by the City of Genoa and the villa was used as the Botanical Garden of the University of Genoa. During the bombings of World War II, the villa was practically destroyed except for the terrace overlooking the buildings in Piazza Fontane Marose, and in the following years it was rebuilt in modern style to house the Edoardo Chiossone Museum of Oriental Art. In the period between the two world wars, the garden was enriched both with alien plants and with two artificial "caves", one large and one small. In addition, the waterfall was designed by creating overhangs and pools to make the flow of water more spectacular.
