The Ligurian hinterland, its silent landscapes suspended between the sea and the hills, the quiet atmospheres of small villages surrounded by nature.
An easy bike route that leads to the discovery of Sassello, its territory and its ancient culinary traditions. A ride in the relaxed environment of Beigua Park, where man and nature are perfectly integrated, and where the panorama can sweep at once from the sea to the Alps.
