Ciappi Menhir e Misteri – Finalehiking
Average price € 15
Beautiful route with low elevation gain that winds through the San Bernardino plateau. We will walk on the magical “Ciappi” of Finale Ligure, huge slabs of whitish limestone that emerge from the vegetation and guard rock engravings, mysterious cup marks, and channels that look like maps of a forgotten world. The beautiful rock shelter known as Arma dei Buoi or “Tribunal” deserves a visit; it is an interesting archaeological site consisting of a rock niche with a series of seats carved inside, intended to create a protected gathering place.
But that’s not all! Our itinerary will lead us to the Sundial of Bric Pianarella, an enigmatic Menhir full of charm and mystery.
A perfect hike with little elevation gain truly suitable for everyone, for those who love nature and have the desire to explore.
Length 9.5 km – Elevation gain 186 m (a gentle ups and downs) – Difficulty Easy (T)
Reservations by 6 PM the day before the hike
