December 28, 2025, wet trail, but completely doable even on gravel! Very nice

The beautiful pilgrimage church above Vernazza is beautifully situated in the Cinque Terre landscape. Unfortunately, it wasn't open during our visit.

The dirt road that connects the hamlet of Bagatello to Valico dei Solini follows the route of the 43rd stage of the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri (Ceparana–Valico dei Solini) and also partly coincides with a segment of the Lunigiana Gravel. The route is easy to ride: the surface is largely compact and stable, ideal for gravel and MTB. Some short sections have a slightly more unstable surface, with loose gravel or uneven terrain, but overall the ride is smooth and pleasant, even uphill. The natural setting is very suggestive, with wooded sections and open views towards the Val di Vara.

"A privileged place is reserved in the Bible for Mary, who was chosen to become the Mother of God and to participate positively in the Incarnation and Redemption. In the past, the grace of divine election was emphasized above all. Today, Mary's response is also emphasized, her yes, or rather, her 'active and responsible consent'. A responsible and courageous yes to a task that involved the whole world..." Text: Albino Luciani, Patriarch of Venice (later Pope John Paul I)

“Nostra Signora deReggio”, with a Romanesque façade, has been mentioned in documents since 1248. Inside is the image of the Virgin, which according to legend was made by Saint Luke, but is instead attributed to a Genoese school of the 14th century. Holm oaks, cedars, horse chestnuts and the oldest centuries-old cypress in Liguria (800 years old) shade the square, where a spring flows from picturesque masks. The coronation ceremony dates back to 1853. Solemn masses are held every Sunday afternoon at 3 p.m.

The Magra is a river in Northern Italy that rises at an altitude of 1,200 m in the Apennines. The river is about 70 km long. The Magra flows through several towns and villages, including Pontremoli, Filattiera, Villafranca in Lunigiana and Aulla in the province of Massa-Carrara, and Santo Stefano di Magra, Vezzano Ligure, Arcola, Sarzana and Ameglia in the province of La Spezia. At Bocca di Magra (Mouth of the Magra) the river flows into the Ligurian Sea. In Roman times it was known as the Macra. She then marked the eastern border of Liguria (modern Liguria). On April 8, 2020 around 10:20 local time near Caprigliola, a bridge over the Magra collapsed due to poor maintenance. Due to the Corona crisis in Italy, the bridge was used by few vehicles at the time and only two people were injured.

It can be reached via provincial road 51 and then follow the signs for a downhill path

You can also get there from provincial road 38
