Escursioni a Levante - Moneglia, Sestri, Tigullio, Portofino

The Eastern Riviera, in the stretch between Nervi and Moneglia, is a mosaic of very different landscapes, atmospheres and environments. The large urban centers of Chiavari or Rapallo contrast with the wild and solitary expanses of Mediterranean scrub of Punta Baffe and Punta Manara, centers of great tourist tradition such as Portofino and Sestri Levante are surrounded by places rich in history such as the Rocche di Sant' Anna or the Abbey of San Fruttuoso, without considering that, as often happens along the Ligurian coast, in just over an hour's walk, you can make an extraordinary journey from the sea to the mountains, from the beaches to the chestnut groves, from the spring blossoms of the coast to the still winter climate of the ridges above. The numerous small summits that dominate the coast, which often host sanctuaries of ancient origins, also allow you to admire headlands, inlets, bays and valleys from new and surprising perspectives. Furthermore, as happens with the nearby Cinque Terre, also in this portion of the coast, it is clear how the millenary human presence has shaped the natural environment, giving life to a unique landscape in the world, to be discovered by walking consciously, overcoming the conventional image. that often these colorful villages and these pleasant inlets have now settled in our eyes and in our thoughts.
