BraccoからLevantoへの分岐後..非常に新鮮な水..🤩

The small sacred monument we encounter on Monte Gottero is perhaps the perfect place for a brief moment of reflection. A few years ago, Christiane Völkel commented on the wonderfully fitting sentence by the Italian poet Francesco Petrarch (who lived in the 14th century), "Everywhere one has heaven above oneself," as follows: "What is the use of prayer? This question moves me (...) I have found for myself the answer and the certainty that when I pray I am with the Lord, or rather, that when I pray he is often noticeably closer to me than usual. Thus, I retain the possibility of pouring out my heart to him (...) This intimacy with him makes me believe in him."

Refreshingly cold fountain water and a small shrine in homage to Marco Pantani; definitely worth a detour

Rest point with picnic area

a place to rest in the cool and sheltered just below the cross of Monte Gottero.

The Green Lake is located at an altitude of 1,053 meters and is particularly fascinating during the autumn, when the water level rises and the surrounding forest is tinged with shades from yellow to red, creating a spectacle of foliage. During the winter, the place is often covered in heavy snowfall. Here it crosses the Via degli Abati, an ancient road used by Piacenza monks since the 7th century, which connected the ancient monastery of Bobbio to Pontremoli. The Via degli Abati, older than the Via Francigena, was the main route to reach Rome since the year 600.

On the Guaitarola pass, on the slopes of the homonymous mountain, a small fountain seems to be dedicated to those who pedal: it recalls the passage from here of the 2006 Giro d'Italia, in a stage between Livorno and Sestri Levante.

The panoramic road of Mount Cornoviglio is located between the Alpicella pass and the Casoni pass: this offers a fantastic view of the coast and the entire region.
