At the highest point of the old connecting path from Porto Pollo to Serra di Ferro, there are several great views in all directions: to Cupabia beach, to the bay of Propiano and inland to the highest mountains.

If you are leaving from Porto Pollo, I think it is unwise to do this route with children. Average speed is about 3 km/h.

Beautiful coastal trail to the Genoese tower Torra di Capanella. To get to the tower, park the bikes on the hiking trail. The way up is not mobile.

Beautiful beach 😍. The journey from Coti-Chiavara is not that easy due to the many meters in altitude.
