Rocche Bianche and Mount Mao

From Finale Ligure take the Provincial road in the direction of Manie and ride along it until you reach the top of the plateau. At the end of the climb, near a left hand bend in the road, pick up the downhill track to the right for about 500 m, turning left onto the first dirt road you come across. You will then reach the first of two campsites and the Provincial road after that. Pick up the trail on the right and you will soon be near the second campsite. From there continue along the Provincial road to an obvious red-clay building on the right side of the road: take the dirt road on the left; then, immediately after, keep right and join the trail that crosses the meadows next to the road, reaching a second dirt road on the left that takes you to the panoramic spot of Bric dei Monti. Carry on towards Magnone, go into town and, next to Municipio Town Hall, take the road to the right that goes to Rocche Bianche. Stay on route and pick up the trail Terre Alte: you will easily reach the evocative ridge of Monte Mao, a panoramic spot from where you can overlook the entire Liguria region. Follow the dirt road until you reach the entrance of an old quarry: from here you can see the start of the last trail, that leads to Spotorno. Back to the coast, return to Finale Ligure along the coastal road.
