At Colle di Velva, a crossing point of the Ligurian Apennines at 545 meters above sea level, is the Sanctuary of the Madonna della Guardia, a point of reference for those accessing the Val di Vara from the Tigullio area.

The closure of the Velva tunnel (for about six months) meant that almost the entire route to the Colle was asphalted. Now the descents are a spectacle. And now that they have reopened the tunnel the traffic is scarce and therefore.... make way for cyclists!!!!
