Mola Pass (650 m)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Passo della Mola is a nice alternative to the parallel Passo del Bracco to get from the sea to Varatal.
With good visibility you have a great view up here. Both to the north to the French Maritime Alps as well as to the south, where on some days the mountains of the Apuan Alps are within reach.

Sestri Levante Beach

Highlight • Beach

In Sestri Levante there are two of the most famous beaches in Liguria, perhaps also thanks to their suggestive name. These are the Bay of Fables and the Bay of Silence.

Bay of Silence

Highlight • Beach

That of Silence is an enchanting bay that over the centuries has been the chosen land of numerous poets, writers, painters, musicians and scientists. The German composer Richard Wagner, the Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen and the Italian scientist Guglielmo Marconi stayed here, among others. The bay is characterized by a sandy beach with crystal clear water and is one of the ten most beautiful beaches in Italy. It houses a small fishing port and is framed by the colorful houses of Sestri Levante, but also by important historic buildings that make the landscape even more characteristic.

June 15, 2025,Maremonti - il giro dei due passi 🇮🇹

Day 1 in Liguria and straight back on my road bike. I've somehow become enamored with the Ligurian part of the Southern Appenine, with its proximity to the sea and the mountains, which are very green even in summer, so I always enjoy coming back to the Maremonti region.

A mix of climbs, a pinch of double-digit slopes, a handful of smooth descents, a small taste of the plains, all seasoned with a warm ray of sunshine q. b. Perfect recipe!!!
