ボルゴマーロの絶景の山頂・トップ20

There's something mystical about Mount Faudo: a trail of ancient stories, far back in time. Today, it's best known for the marathon trail that climbs from Imperia to its summit and for the antennas dotting it; yet for centuries, it was a contested land between the church, neighboring states, and the villages on its slopes. Since the ancient Ligurians, well before the Romans. It shares this burden with Mount Follia and Mount Sette Fontane. The oldest evidence of human settlement in the Dolcedo area is near Mount Follia, a conical peak on the southern slope of Mount Faudo. Traces of metalworking have emerged there, with furnaces and residential structures, dating back to the Iron Age castellari, fortifications placed high up for observation and defense, in visual contact with other castellari in the area. Today, the site is abandoned: one can still walk and imagine the defensive landscape of the ancient Ligurians.

Climb on a well pedaled dirt road

Well pedaled dirt climb with beautiful views of the sea

Not so far from the actual summit of Monte Ceppo, located at 1,627 meters above sea level, this point is the highest that can be reached on asphalt. The last kilometers to get here from the southern side are really tough.

The surface is lousy in the upper area. When driving up, it is very annoying on the descent and costs a lot of time because there are hardly any roads in many places. landscape great. RECOMMENDATION: Gravel or MTB. Alternatively: schedule time

Beautiful dirt trail with beautiful panoramic views.

Monte Faudo (1151 m) is a beautiful dome-shaped mountain that rises a short distance from the sea, overlooking the Ligurian Riviera.

Monte Faudo is easily doable both uphill and downhill with a gravel bike. I recommend going up from Dolcedo, or Civezza, arriving in both cases at S. Brigida, because it is less steep. The descent from the side of Monte Follia towards the Taggia valley is less clean, but this too is done with a gravel.
