A charming place steeped in history, it offers a beautiful view of Chiavari and the sea. The cobbled pavement, decorated with "rissêu" mosaics, typical of Tigullio and Liguria, adorns the churchyard in front of the church. Comfortable creuze (except for a few poorly maintained sections) allow for an easy visit, with two alternative routes back to Chiavari. From Ri Alto, the trail to Curlo di San Tommaso begins. The signposts are marked "Square Rosso Solida" (full red square) from the Ceive ascent next to the Chiavari cemetery, and the trail markers are two parallel red lines on the way down.

beautiful and panoramic route

An imposing bronze monument commemorating the great admiral of the ocean, who eternally marches toward the sea. The benefactor who commissioned the statue in 1930 had his portrait immortalized on the marble column upon which it rests. In the foreground is a globe with America in the foreground.

Partisans of the "Zelasco" Brigade (Garibaldi "Coduri" Division), after the liberation of Lavagna, attempted to cross the bridge over the Entella River on April 23-25, 1945, and persuade the German troops still barricaded in Chiavari to surrender. There were clashes and artillery fire; among the dead were: "Furio," the nom de guerre of Luigi Fè, born in Florence on November 7, 1929; "Otto," Marino Rugi, born in Livorno on November 24, 1919; and "Scorpione," Antonio Minucci, born in Reggio Calabria on November 7, 1924. The latter's nom de guerre is on the face of the pillar facing the house, which I didn't notice and therefore didn't photograph. I later learned about it from the local press, and in 2024 I received a photograph from Gianluigi Barale (last thumbnail), which shows that the marble slab with part of his name is mounted upside down. A plaque indicates the place of his death as the road that runs from Cavi di Lavagna up the Barassi stream. (c) https://www.chieracostui.com/costui/docs/search/schedaoltre.asp?ID=8158

The Entella forms the natural border between Lavagna and Chiavari. The Ponte della Libertà is one of three bridges connecting the two towns.

To follow if you want to get to the sea

Waterfront that is equipping itself with "cycle" paths: At the moment they are really painful, alternating unwatchable and impassable sections (obstacles in the middle, paths on sidewalks that intersect sidewalks, almost blind intersections with the road) with almost acceptable sections. hmm....

The Entella river is a watercourse that originates from the Sturla, Graveglia and Lavagna streams at the height of Carasco. The river bed divides the municipality of Chiavari from that of Lavagna. Along its banks you can see gulls, geese, ducks, swans, mallards, coots and many other species of sedentary or passing birds. For this reason, since 1988 the Entella River has been a protected Oasis by the Province of Genoa and has become part of the Natura 2000 Network of the European Union.
