Passi e valli in bicicletta - Liguria vol.2 Il Ponente

The wonderful climbs of the Ponente Ligure valleys (provinces of Genoa and Savona) finally gathered together. A guide that suggests unforgettable routes along "panoramic" roads with scenic views of the sea and mountains. From the coastal towns, very long climbs with steep gradients lead to the highest passes or mountains of the Ligurian Apennines or the Ligurian Alps. Among them there are also unknown and terrible climbs with an evocative name, such as the Cima dell'Inferno. Medium length but challenging climbs lead to venerated sanctuaries at the top of isolated hills that dominate the coast. In addition to climbs for experienced cyclists, this guide also describes easier and shorter climbs accessible to everyone, which lead to fascinating places such as the Manie Plateau. All the information is provided to experience an exciting stretch of the Milan-Sanremo, from Genoa to Capo Cervo, along the Via Aurelia, which runs a stone's throw from the sea. Thanks to the mild climate of the Riviera, on these roads you forget the fog or the cold that lies beyond the Passo del Turchino and the Colle di Cadibona.
