Tips from the Community
I got there hoping for a viewpoint, but it's a crossroads in the woods. No need to deviate from the path to get here.

Climbing Monte San Giacomo, despite being only 530 m above sea level and a few km of climb, is never trivial from any of the three sides. One for the other they have slopes of up to 15% and decidedly narrow streets, in particular the one from Via Renda. Furthermore, the one from Tolceto has a decidedly bad surface. The descents are more difficult than the climbs: it is easy to find damp and treacherous curves and cars in narrow passages!

Stretch of dirt road that connects the towns of Castagnola and Terisso. The bottom is very beaten and can also be pedaled with a gravel without generous wheels. In some places the vegetation opens up and you can enjoy the panorama.

Montemoggio is a fraction of the municipality of Borzonasca, and is a small rural village surrounded by woods and meadows, where chestnuts, fruit and vegetables are grown. Thanks to its position you can admire the panorama of the upper Sturla Valley.
