I arrived in a camper and found a spot easily in the large lot next to the bridge. In town, I also stocked up on groceries at the small butcher's shop just as you enter the village... the owner was very friendly and the shop was well-stocked!

Beautiful town kept in excellent condition.

The Millenary Church of Ruta is a national monument.

Climbing from Cicagna (north side) and passing through the hamlet of Dezerega, the road is mostly paved, with sections reaching gradients of over 20%. You gain 500 meters of elevation gain in about 5 km. It's very shaded, and from the Crocetta Pass, Rapallo is just a short drive away.

The Millenaria di Ruta is a church that has shaped the history and landscape of the Eastern Ligurian Riviera. Founded in the 12th century along the ancient Via Aurelia, at an altitude of approximately 270 meters, it served as a rest stop and transit point for merchants and pilgrims heading to Genoa. Its strategic location, in the heart of the Portofino Natural Park, offers breathtaking views stretching from Camogli to the Golfo Paradiso. This simple and sober stone church housed for centuries an altarpiece by the Flemish painter Joos van Cleve, a masterpiece brought to Liguria thanks to Genoa's flourishing trade. The original work, for safety reasons, was removed and is now housed in the Galleria Nazionale di Palazzo Spinola in Genoa. Today, the Millenaria is not only a historical but also a naturalistic landmark, serving as the starting point for numerous trails that wind through the Portofino promontory, offering visitors the opportunity to explore a unique landscape of Mediterranean scrub and breathtaking views.

This must be the cliché image of the Italian Riviera. It has everything!
