The Best of the Area around Genoa

The Genovesato, the area around and including Genoa, is suspended between the land and the sea. A place of great natural beauty, it also produces many excellences – filigree in Campo Ligure, damasks and velvets in Zoagli and Lorsica, the slate of the Val Fontanabuona, the chairs of Chiavari – making it filled with varied routes of interest that follow the coast or lead into the mountains. The Genovesato is worth a weekend, or more, on a voyage of discovery from the west to the east in an area so filled with beauty and surprises.
