High Variant Leg 8 Chiavari – Montallegro - Rapallo

From Chiavari you can follow the high variant of the Sentiero Liguria. This is a spectacular but somewhat strenuos itinerary, that starts near the suburb San Pier di Canne and, climbing over of Mount Castello and Mount Anchetta, reaches the Sanctuary of N.S. di Montallegro (600 m a.s.l.). The highly panoramic route offers interesting views over both the coast and the hinterland. From the Sanctuary it is possible to skip the last descent to Rapallo by catching the panoramic funicular.
