One of Liguria's most famous scenic routes, the one between Lerici and Montemarcello is one of the most popular among cyclists in Versilia. Its rolling hills and sheer cliffs overlooking the sea make it truly unique.

The beautiful and imposing marble monument, carved from white Carrara marble from the Apuan Alps, dates back to 1914. It is dedicated to the legendary Giuseppe Garibaldi and is the work of the sculptor and artist Carlo Fontana. Overlooking Piazza Garibaldi (namesake of the great hero of two worlds), founded in the 19th century, is the Impavidi Theatre, built on the initiative of a group of private citizens of Sarzana, on an area previously occupied by the church and the Dominican Convent. The theatre was inaugurated in 1809 and is among the oldest historic theatres in the Liguria region. (c) https://share.google/BfaHC76OuiZolWCMB

A very easy and pleasant ride. Much of the route follows secondary roads with very little traffic. Splendid views of Fosdinovo Castle, the mouth of the Magra River, and the Bay of La Spezia.

A very curious place

Aula is a fundamental hub of the Via Francigena, it was tormented by the bombings of the Second World War, causing the almost total destruction of its historic center, of which very few vestiges remain. It is located a few kilometers from the border with Liguria, on a narrow strip of land at the confluence of the Magra river and the Aulella stream, a decisive place for the civil and religious life of the entire area before the year 1000. Aulla in that period was already a small village and its importance was linked precisely to its central position along the Via Francigena, both as a pilgrimage road and as a commercial artery. The center of the town had an important role in defending the roads that led from the Lucca area and Liguria towards the Cisa Pass.

The Brunella Fortress owes its name to the hill on which it was built in the mid-16th century. The fort is a typical example of Renaissance military architecture, designed to defend against firearm attacks. It is an almost square construction with large polygonal struts. What is certain is that the complex represents the most powerful military work in Lunigiana and its strategic position allowed it, in the past, to control all the main routes in the area and the arrivals from the Apennine passes.
