Between old forts and mountains where the ancient Ligurian people found refuge, the path softens,

the view sweeps away and the wind brings the smell of salt.

‍

In the words of Maurizio Maggiani: "The Alps are climbed, the Apennines are traveled /

from the Alp you can see the universe and maybe even God / but from the Apennines / you can see men and also the sea”.

This is the sublime synthesis offered by the Ligurian Mountains: an unforgettable balcony,

suspended between the Mediterranean’s sparkle and the glitter of glaciers.
