インペリアのおすすめランニングルート

The Italian chemist Giulio Natta, Nobel laureate in Chemistry in 1963, has close ties to the city of Sanremo. He became famous for his work on polymer structures and the development of modern plastics such as polypropylene, which had a lasting impact on industry. Natta spent part of his life in Sanremo, where he sought respite and lived for periods of time. The city still commemorates the important scientist today, including with a plaque at his former residence.

The Sanremo Casino is located right at the beginning of the main shopping street. It is one of the city's most famous landmarks and a symbol of its glamorous past: opened in 1905, the Art Nouveau building impresses with its elegant facades and opulent halls.

In August, it's nice and cool in the tunnels. Wonderful route, one of the most beautiful bike paths anywhere. You should set off early, around 8 a.m., in midsummer; there are plenty of places to stop for refreshments. Easy (or not at all) route profile. Easy rolling!

There's something mystical about Mount Faudo: a trail of ancient stories, far back in time. Today, it's best known for the marathon trail that climbs from Imperia to its summit and for the antennas dotting it; yet for centuries, it was a contested land between the church, neighboring states, and the villages on its slopes. Since the ancient Ligurians, well before the Romans. It shares this burden with Mount Follia and Mount Sette Fontane. The oldest evidence of human settlement in the Dolcedo area is near Mount Follia, a conical peak on the southern slope of Mount Faudo. Traces of metalworking have emerged there, with furnaces and residential structures, dating back to the Iron Age castellari, fortifications placed high up for observation and defense, in visual contact with other castellari in the area. Today, the site is abandoned: one can still walk and imagine the defensive landscape of the ancient Ligurians.

very nice tour with a little effort you can get there

The summit cross that crowns Monte FAUDO loses its effect as the crowning glory of the mountain due to its immediate surroundings: This mountain peak is obviously also a radio station, because antenna masts in the immediate vicinity tower significantly above the summit cross and unfortunately deprive this small sacred monument of its visual impact.

Slightly chaotic point on the route

From Sanremo to Loano easy and beautiful
