There are many wind turbines in these areas.

Bar frequented by many cyclists.

Sorry...the name is wrong: they are the Pennavaire waterfalls in Martinetto, in the hinterland of Albenga.

Castelvecchio Castle in Rocca Barbena dominates the medieval village of the same name, perched on a rocky spur in the Savona hinterland. A former stronghold of the Del Carretto marquises, it was built for military and defensive purposes, and its strategic location made it the fulcrum of feudal power over the valley below. Today, the imposing manor is reduced to a fascinating ruin, its ruins revealing centuries of history. Although no longer intact, the atmosphere surrounding it is highly evocative. Its crumbling walls and towers have become the symbol of the village, a true testament to its glorious past.

Calizzano is a village in the province of Savona, in the Ligurian hinterland, known for its wooded landscape and tranquility. It is an ideal destination for lovers of outdoor activities such as hiking and mountain biking, and for mushroom and chestnut picking. The town is renowned for its mineral waters and springs considered beneficial, such as the "Cruvoyra." Its history is ancient, with origins dating back to the Paleolithic, and a past linked to the Del Carretto family. Among the typical products, in addition to forest fruits, the "Calizzano turnip," a Slow Food Presidium, stands out.

A small park centered around a giant bench and a heart-shaped sculpture. Picnic tables and a recently built café with restrooms are available. Unfortunately, there's no water fountain, but given the location, that's understandable. Beautiful views of the surrounding hills.

A nice little pass, not too steep.
