Pietra Borghese

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Borghese Stone has a particular shape and structure that attracts lightning and resonates in a metallic way; in fact, it contains abundant magnetite that causes compasses to go crazy.
Many legends circulate about its origin: among these, one that depicts it as a meteorite with an ever-burning fire inside and the home of a gigantic snake.
In reality, it represents a true geological jewel: it is in fact an outcrop of peridotites.
We are talking about lherzolitic peridotites (the name derives from the Lherz Massif, an Alpine peridotite complex in the French Pyrenees), rocks from the subcontinental mantle that progressively rose, surfacing on the bottom of an ancient ocean (the Ligurian-Piedmont Ocean) during the extensional processes that caused it to open.
These rocks, radiometrically dated approximately 2.5 billion years, are among the oldest in Italy

Rifugio Malga Zanoni

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The refuge was built at an altitude of 1,100 metres, on the border between pastures and centuries-old beech woods. Its paths lead to the peaks of the Aiona and Penna mountains, cross the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri and continue towards the other valleys of the Park and Emilia Romagna.

October 12, 2024,Prato Mollo e Malga Zanoni - giro ad anello
Fairytale woods, free-roaming horses, autumn colors, swollen streams.
Not to be walked alone, a couple of fords are slippery.
How beautiful is the Val d'Aveto.

September 29, 2023,Anello della Scaletta - A8
The rings of the Aveto Park: we will be able to do them all, that's a promise :-D! This is the turn of number 8, the Ladder Ring. A rather challenging route, with EE sections. To be done with the necessary breaks, on days of good weather but not too hot, and with any modifications that we suggest in the …
