Itinerary description
Wonderful series of trails around the magic suburb of Genova Apparizione.
The trails have been built by groups of passionate bikers ("spunciabike", "trekking san desiderio") like Stefano.
Many information on El Niño can be found at SpunciaBike Blog
Trail starts at right along Monte Fasce road when almost in Liberale Place (where the Lady appeared centuries ago).
The first part is the El Nino trail that crosses chestnuts forests down to Apparizione village at "del Moro" restaurant.
From restaurant we take the left to Monte Fasce road which is immediately crossed to take Via al Canneto di Apparizione. Here the "Il Panoramico" trail starts. The name comes from its open meadows from where you have wonderful views ("panorami") of the city and of the sea.
We live The panoramico at a sharp bend where the original trail turns toward west: from that point the "Casello" trail goes first to east and then down to south toward the sea.
All the trails are quite easy except some final 50m of the Casello trail which are really steep (50% or more slope) and really demanding
The tour ends at the bridgeway that crosses Corso Europa near highway entrance.
(and thanks again to Trail builders..)
