ENNATO BASE to NOLI
From Bric dei Monti (410m asl.) you can enjoy a spectacular view of Savona, Spotorno but most of all, of Noli. Noli enjoyed a certain political independence for some periods in its history. Contacts and clashes with Genoa and other powers both maritime and inland are reflected in the complexity and abundance of civil, religious, military and many beautiful natural areas.
Shuttle of about 40 minutes up to NATO Base (1019m asl.). We take the path to Colla Cravarezza, from which we go up a few tens of meters onto the Crestino path. Easy trail, enjoyable flow, berms and some small jumps, immersed in a wonderful beech forest.
After a pleasant transfer on a gravel road we reach the Aia du Preve path, this part is characterized by easy passages in counter-slope on soft undergrowth terrain.
Short transfer on a fire road to the Rocche Bianche, from here we carry over Ca dei Gatti from where we will enjoy a first panoramic view of the entire area of Finalese. After a brief stop we follow the gravel road until we reach the Catena trail, a very fun and fast trail without any particular difficulties.
Short transfer on asphalt to Magnone. 15 minutes uphill to the panoramic point of the bric dei Monti with immense panorama on the "golfo dell' Isola" of Bergeggi.
After a short pause, we take the Andrassa path, an easy variant, first part on gravel and then entering a fast mix of curves and straights with little steepness on a compact ground.
We leave the path to ride the last climb of the morning and reach the restaurant where we can taste the typical Ligurian dishes.
We are now on the Manie plateau where the famous "24 hours of Finale" race is held every year.
After lunch we will ride a part of this circuit including the famous Togoga 24h to the panoramic point of Punta Crena above the bay of the Saracens (the spot that made Finale Ligure famous in the world). Beyond the Steghe tower we arrive at the "Semaforo" from where the Pellegrino trail starts, a characteristic panoramic route that will take us to the heart of the splendid Noli. During the descent there is the possibility, on request, to visit the Falsari cave (a beautiful natural cave overlooking the sea).

ITA - Da Bric dei Monti si gode di una vista spettacolare su Savona, Spotorno ma soprattutto Noli. Noli godette di una certa indipendenza politica per alcuni periodi della sua storia. I contatti e gli scontri con Genova ed altre potenze sia marittime che dell’entroterra si rispecchiano nella complessità ed abbondanza di architetture civili, religiose, militari e le molte bellissime aree naturali.

Noli besaß für einige Perioden in seiner Geschichte eine gewisse politische Unabhängigkeit. Kontakte und Zusammenstöße mit Genua und anderen maritimen und inländischen Mächten spiegeln sich in der Komplexität und Fülle ziviler, religiöser, militärischer Naturgebiete wider.
