The road surface has several irregularities because of the particular morphology of the territory and the frequency of landslides, which often cause the sudden closure of some roads. For this reason, we advise you to ask someone about the condition of the roads before starting this route.

Another itinerary starts from Alassio and takes you into the inland of the Ligurian Ponente, on a path between the hills and the sea. From Alassio you can reach the Santuario della Madonna della Guardia taking the Via Aurelia in the direction of Laigueglia and Andora. You should arrive at the foot of Cervo.
