ヴァレーゼ・リーグレ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

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

possible excursions both on foot and by bike

89 steps that are worth it if you have a clear view. Old ruins with great impressions

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

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.

Monte Gottero rises up to 1639 m above sea level and is part of the eastern Ligurian Apennines.

Between Riva Trigoso and Carrodano it is one of the most evocative and most beautiful stretches of the "Aurelia" to cycle around. The asphalt is a carpet, the unmissable views and the sinuous but gentle curves. It's true, in summer there are many motorcycles and you have to pay attention to the "racers", but most of them are tourist motorcycles and they don't give too much trouble.
