Italy - Finale Ligure

[MaxAug]

Finale Ligure is a small and nice town on Mar Ligure in Italy, here you can find wonderful trails near the sea, very particular spots and of course fantastic food like trenette al pesto!




Other beautiful pics and info here.
Cheers!

Great pics!

It looks just like our trip to Cervo, posted below:

Cervo, Italy

Love to check out those trails the next holiday.

Finale Ligure is nice but a bit overhyped. There are many other trails on all the Ligurian coast ( www.mtbsanremo.it ) .

If you want fun in Finale Ligure book one or more days of shuttling with finalefreeride - going on your own you probably will miss the best trails and spots.
Riding a 6"+ bike up the hills to the trailheads is not what you want to do more than once on a hot summer day.

Thanks for the tip!

Yes, the spots in Finale Ligure are similar with the spots in Cervo, these 2 town are less than 50 kilometers from each other.

See you in Liguria!!

Hi Cxfahrer,
yes all the ligurian cost is full of marvellous trails...i think you know the famous "Sentiero H" (H Trail), don't you?

Yes we rode the complete route up to natobase and down but I think this is more an allmountain track. Was fun though, riding in the fog on top of the hill and then going down into the sunlight at Finalborgo.

Yup, the Ligurian coast is a really good destination for spring biking, especailly if the Alps are still full of snow at the time
We went to Finale Ligure for last years' May 1st holidays and to San Remo this year.Cool riding both times.

I wouldn't recommend these locations for the summer though.Especially during ferragosto.Aside from the obvious heat the coastal towns become super crowded during the summer and traffic gets awful.

I may be in Finale Ligure in April for my honeymoon and I was wondering if there is XC riding there? Seems like all the info I've seen so far has been for freeride/downhill shuttle assisted riding.

[problematiks]

No problem for xc, you can always pedal up instead of shuttling (that's what we did)
Singletrack is mostly pointing down though and there aren't many smooth trails to my recollection, if that's what you're looking for.

We did spend only about a week there a few years ago, so there's a good possibility I don't know the half of it

Cool, thanks for the tip. I'm not really looking for smooth rolling hills, I just didn't know how accessible the trails were without a shuttle. If I can get a good long ride in I'll be happy.
