Spend a dream day in Italy on a top-class cycling trip through one of Liguria's most beautiful valleys. This is an area renowned for its authenticity, gastronomy, olive groves and vineyards, and also for its marvellous waterfalls & crystal-clear rivers nestling in the heart of the mountains.

Start from Ventimiglia, accessible by train, for this extraordinary day out: soak up the flavours of Italy & pedal softly along a seaside bike path, then join a riverside to follow the course of the Nervia valley to its most famous, wonderful and spectacular village:

Dolceacqua is a marvel: its medieval bridge which seduced Monet (painter), majestic castle & maze of tiny covered streets, its unique local wines & olive oils. The village is heavenly picturesque.

A 2nd medieval village in the valley with its succession of natural waterfalls & crystal-clear waters (take a dip in the river and admire remarkable natural sites).

Return via spectacular panoramic roads overlooking different valleys.
