Description

This stage of the hike is characterised by dense forest and diverse wildlife.

It is one of the regions of Italy with the highest forest density, which means you’ll have lots of nice long stretches through shady woodland.

Near Muegge, you will pass through the Adelasia Nature Reserve, and then, later on, you enter the vast Beigua Park.

Along the way, expect to come across everything from huge 19th-century military fortifications, fallow deer, and diurnal raptors.

The area has an unpredictable microclimate, but what is guaranteed in this area are the unreal panoramic views across the Liguria Sea, especially as you cross the massif plateaus in Beigua Park.
