Start your journey from Villa Giada and glide along the coastal cycle path to Sanremo as if in a prologue to the sea, where you can enjoy the breeze and the wide horizon. Then the road climbs to San Romolo - a climb that takes you into a world of silence and endless panoramas. The descent to Ospedaletti feels like an exhilarating flight, a moment of pure liberation, before you plunge deep into the hinterland. Dolceacqua welcomes you with its medieval charm, a village that seems to have come straight out of a fairy tale. From there, the road becomes wild in the direction of Mulini di Triora, a place full of history and secrets. Then the ascent to Monte Fenaira begins, another peak to conquer - a point where heaven and earth seem to merge. The descent to Lavina offers a short breather, a moment of calm before the next challenge: the Colla San Bartolomeo, a pass that rewards you with breathtaking views. Caravonica and Pontedassio serve as transitional stops, old villages that whisper stories from the past. Finally, the descent to Imperia marks the return to civilisation, but with a heart full of adventure and unforgettable landscapes. This is a route for real cyclists - an experience that will stay with you forever.
